THere is archival info that HDA Intel Corporation 82801G card 8086:27d8
has an Agere/LSI modem chip  11c13026 in the 1179:ff10 Subsystem,
which is supported in principle.

However the support is encoded within the ALSA snd-hda-intel driver.
Thus there is  no modem support when you are using the alternate OSS
drivers.

If you want to test the modem, you have to use the snd-hda-intel,
which may be necessary at bootup.
If the 11c13026 is then found by
 ./scanModem
you're on the right track.
