Hi Fabricio, 
Hmm.. You make an interesting point when you say it is
caused by IRQ sharing...
There are a couple of approaches you can take:
1. Move the modem card to another slot in the PC, if
possible... though it sounds like you've already tried
that.
2. Try adding 'pci=routeirq' to the kernel argument
line at boot,
or 3. add 'pci=noacpi' to the kernel argument line at
boot.
The first may or may not change the modem's IRQ,
depending on your BIOS.
The second is a special IRQ setting for PCI devices
that may alleviate the problem, 
and the fourth tells the kernel NOT to use ACPI to
configure the devices on the PCI bus... so hopefully
it's smart enough not to set up the modem to share an
IRQ.
If that still doesn't work, you may be able to do it
with 'noacpi' on the kernel argument line, but shut
down/suspend etc. may not work as expected when this
option is enabled. If that STILL fails, try booting
your kernel in 'failsafe' mode to see if it still 
hangs.

Also note that the Agrsm driver is VERY picky about
ALSA versions... If your kernel shipped with ALSA
1.0.15 or below, I would suggest reverting to that
version and using the package with the ALSA15 suffix,
which may also help the issue. I've had kernel OOPses
from stray ALSA drivers in /lib/modules that were of a
different version.
Best,
Bjorn.
