CPU=i686, Fedora Core release 6 (Zod)
Kernel
Linux version 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 (brewbuilder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 4.1.1 20061011 (Red Hat 4.1.1-30)) #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 14:54:20 EDT 2006

USB modem not detected by lsusb
Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:

Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:
--- Bootup diagnositcs for card in PCI slot 00:0e.0 ----
=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
=== Next deducing cogent software ===
For candidate modem in PCI bus: 00:0e.0
Class 0780: 11c1:0440 Communication controller: Agere Systems 56k WinModem
Primary PCI_id 11c1:0440
Support type needed or chipset: Agere.DSP
The modem has a supported Lucent/Agere Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal
processing) chipset. Support packages for 2.6.n kernels are at:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/
For a temporary fix for 2.6.18 kernels see
See AgereDSP.txt for Details.
DSP=1
Vendor 11c1 is Lucent Technologies or subsidiary Agere Systems, Inc. Their Linux
code developer/maintainer is Soumyendu Sarkar. Support for a chipset and its
continued maintenance is only initiated at the request of a major chipset buyer,
or comparable sponsor. Several different modem chipset types are produced,
and two have support under Linux:
