Michele, scanModem recommends hsfmodem driver : Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem Writing DOCs/Intel.txt For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source package with full speed enabled is available, b ut requires driver compiling. Read DOCs/Conexant.txt Start at http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/downloads-license.php to find the hsfmodem package matching your System. For several Linux distros, there are precompiled drivers matched to specific kernels. These have within the FileName, your KernelVersion: 2.6.27_7_generic They can be found through http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php A more precise location may be given a few paragraphs below. If an EXACT Match with your your KernelVersion is not found, one of the "Generic packages with source" near the bottom of the page must be used. Downloaded packages must be moved into the Linux partition (home folder is OK) and unzipped with: unzip hsf*.zip The installation command for a .deb suffic packages is, with root/adm permission: sudo dpkg -i hsf*.deb while for .rpm suffix it is, with: rpm -i hsf*.rpm Support for Conexant chips hosted on High Definition Audio cards may require installation of additional packages, one of the alsa-driver-linuxant packages on http://www.linuxant.com/alsa-driver/ At the same time download the alsa-driver-1.0.17-1.patch , in case it prove to be later needed. During the hsfmodem install, there will be a message if there is necessary installation of alsa-driver-linuxant The installation command for a .deb suffic packages is, with root/adm permission: sudo alsa* -i hsf*.deb while for .rpm suffix it is, with: rpm -i hsf*.rpm There may a message that "Dependencies" are not satisfied. In this case the Ubuntu/Debian packages to be installe d are linux-libc-dev & libc6-dev. Package names may be different for other Linuxes. If not on your install CD, these packages can be searched for at http://packages.ubuntu.com. After download, they can be coinstalled with: sudo dpkg -i li*.deb Again try the alsa-driver-linuxant There may be a message that the patch must be applied. In this case get the ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.17.tar.bz2 Under Linux, this package is unpacked with: $ tar jxf alsa*.tar.bz2 Next the patch is applied with: $ patch -p0 < alsa-driver-1.0.17-1.patch See http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg00838.html for details on compiling and installing replacement snd-hda-intel + its dependent drivers. After the installation is completed, rerun the hsfmodem installation. Reboot and try to detect the modem with Root permission: sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php download hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full_k2.6.27_7_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.
