Re: Cannot see my softmodem

Hi Igor,
We do have drivers for your modem, but these must be compiled from
scratch, and will not work on anything but x86 arcitecture. I should
also note that we have no prior success cases on your kernel version
(2.6.27). I use kernel 2.6.25.16, for which I maintain the agrsm
drivers, so it is entirely possible it will not work on your system.

Please follow the steps outlined here to compile the modem driver:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/HOWTO-Agere-11c11040-HDA.html
When it comes to downloading a modem driver, I would suggest the latest
source package, available here, which has been updated to remove
deprecated kernel functions:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-20080808-ALSA18.tar.bz2

Please feel free to reply if you encounter any problems or issues.
Best,
Bjorn.
