Barbieri, These driverssnd_atiixp_modemsnd_via82xx_modemare for other modem hardware. It will do no harm and may help toblacklist them: $ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/localjust create to lines:blacklist snd-atiixp-modemblacklist snd-via82xx-modem Do an extra return, then Save.When you reboot they shouldn't be loaded.$ lsmod | grep modemshould not display them. The other guidance below is correct.
