Martin, Communication controller: Agere Systems Device 0630 " CLASS=0780 , PCIDEV=11c1:0630 is a modem we haven't encountered before under Linux. There is service for a 11c1:0630 chipset modem through a agrsm package, for compiling an agrmodem+agrserial driver pair. I'll add 11c1:0630 to the agrsm recognition codes and sent it to you, tonight or tomorrow.
