Welcome to openSUSE 10.3 (i586) - Kernel kernel 2.6.22.5-31-default
With this Subject Line cogent experts will be alerted, and useful case names left in the Archive.
YourCountry will enable Country specific guidance. Your contry's local Linux experts
can be found through: http://www.linux.org/groups/index.html.
They will know your Country's modem code, which may be essential for dialup service.

Welcome to openSUSE 10.3 (i586) - Kernel
Linux version 2.6.22.5-31-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.2.1 (SUSE Linux)) #1 SMP 2007/09/21 22:29:00 UTC
scanModem update of: 2008_05_02
There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe* files
Checking /proc/bus/usb/devices
/proc/bus/usb/devices file not present, barring USB modem query.
For candidate card in slot 00:08.0, firmware information and bootup diagnostics are:

For candidate modem in: 00:08.0
Class 0780: 14f1:2f00 Communication controller: Conexant HSF 56k HSFi Modem
Primary device ID: 14f1:2f00
Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem
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
Start at http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full for
eventually download of a hsfmodem-7.68.00.07full_k.???.zip package
with ??? the package type (deb, rpm, tar etc)
These packages have compiled drivers but will also compile a driver,
if there is a mismatch between the resident kernel and provided driver.
The generic hsfmodem-7.68.00.07full.tar.gz package only provides compiling support

Writing Conexant.txt
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
The kernel was compiled with gcc version 4.2.1 and a compiler is not installed
linux-headers-2.6.22.5-31-default resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
gcc-4.2 make kernel-source-2.6.22.5-31-default
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed package
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Checking pppd properties:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root dialout 298784 2007-09-22 05:41 /usr/sbin/pppd
In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
