Dr. Rainer,
This is an either or case
\begin{"}
-----------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset:
Support can likely be achieved through two mutually exclusive alternatives:
1) The hsfmodem software for Conexant chipset modems: Read Conexant.txt
The following ALSA alternative CANNOT work with Conexant modems.
2) An ALSA modem driver plus slmodemd. Read Smartlink.txt for details, and
to test get the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz from:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
----------------end Softmodem section --------------
Writing Intel.txt
For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source
package with full speed enabled is available, but requires driver
compiling. Read Conexant.txt
Read Conexant.txt
Writing Conexant.txt
Writing Smartlink.txt
\end{"}
Maybe Marv can give you better advice. Those are then only options.
Regards,
Antonio
