Hi,
This is Vara Prasad, I am using Ubuntu 7.10 on Sony VAIO VGN NR 110
E/S , I am not able to find the chipset of modem on my laptop. Can you
please help me in finding out the chipset of my in-built modem and
installing drivers.
Please find the attached ModemData.txt which i got from scanning the
modem from scanModem.gz tool.
please let me know if you need any more details.
Thanks in advance.
Vara Prasad

A modem was not detected among the above PCI devices.
This indicates that the modem, if present has a non-standard or ISA bridge.
Please follow the directions in Modem/General.txt for identifying the modem properties
when booting under Microsoft Windows. Also access any documentation sources
on yourchipset. Guidance can only be provided AFTER
the chipset and/or its drivers have been identified.
