I have recommended the hsfmodem driver because scanModem reported the following:

For candidate card in slot 00:1b.0, firmware information and bootup diagnostics are:
PCI slot    PCI ID        SubsystemID    Name
----------    ---------    ---------    --------------
00:1b.0    8086:284b    1462:3ff3    Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H

Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:
20:        447        428   IO-APIC-fasteoi   HDA Intel
--- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:1b.0 ----
[   31.236791] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1b.0[A] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 20
[   31.237290] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1b.0 to 64

Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:1b.0:
    Modem chipset not detected on
CLASS="Class 0403: 8086:284b"
NAME="Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H "
SUBSYS=1462:3ff3
PCIDEV=8086:284b
IRQ=20
HDA=8086:284b
SOFT=8086:284b.HDA

Support type needed or chipset:   

Support can likely be achieved through two mutually exclusive alternatives:
1) The hsfmodem software for Conexant chipset modems: Read DOCs/Conexant.txt
The following ALSA alternative CANNOT work with Conexant modems.

2) An ALSA modem driver plus slmodemd.  Read DOCs/Smartlink.txt for details, and
to test get the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz from: 
    http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/

----------------end Softmodem section --------------

Writing DOCs/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 DOCs/Conexant.txt

>From  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
download hsfmodem-7.68.00.07full_k2.6.24_18_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
Under Linux unpack with:
$ unzip hsfmodem*.zip
Then install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb
Subsequently, the modem should be found with
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Edit in your personal information with:
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
and try dialing out with:
$ sudo wvdial.
See DOCs/Testing.txt  for details.

Read DOCs/Conexant.txt

But installation failed since the driver from linuxant website is for x86 and not for x86_64.  He will try the generic tar.gz file for x86_64.

Antonio
