For PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name ---------- --------- --------- -------------- 03:07.0 14f1:2013 155d:8850 Communication controller: Conexant HSF 56k Data/Fax Mode the hsfmodem drivers should be fine. Jonathan will respond concerning answering machine issues. The hsfmodem software can be tested at 14.4 and after buying the software key, full speed service will be enabled.
