According to http://www.linuxant.com/drivers , your modem
127a:4321
explicitly requires BOTH the HCF AND RIPTIDE driver.
The Linuxant site does not have any RIPTIDE driver for kernels 2.6.x
Fedora Core 1 was initially based on a kernel 2.4.x
Upgrade to 2.6 became possible later.
There is an FC1 RIPTIDE driver at Linuxant.
It is harmless to try to compile it (see in general the warnings about
the reliability of the RIPTIDE driver , again at Linuxant.
I would be very surprised if you could compile it from the generic tar
file. Otherwise why would Linuxant not recompile for later FC2 etc...
and other 2.4.6 distributions such as Mandrake 10.1 ?

First time linux user, need help to get internal modem going.

With this Subject Line cogent experts will be alerted, and useful case names left in the Archive.
YourCountry will enable Country specific guidance. Your contry's local Linux experts

They will know your Country's modem code, which may be essential for dialup service.

PCI slot 80:01.0 has a High Definition Audio Card
The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) packages providing audio support,
also includes drivers for some modems. The ALSA diagnostics are written during
bootup to /proc/asound/ folders.
The /proc/asound/ audio+modem diagostics are being copied.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.1
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.23.1-42.fc8/build
However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files,
in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ .
For martian_modem, additional required packages are libc6-dev (and for Debian/Ubuntu, linux-libc-dev). The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default.
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
