USB modem
047e:2892 Agere Systems, Inc. (Lucent) Systems Soft Modem
Support type needed or chipset: agrsm
But the Agere USB modems are not supportable after 2.6.24 kernels
because of licensing issues
But there may be a modem chip on
Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia
Primary device ID: 1002:4383
Subsystem PCI_id 1179:ff0a
Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics:
from Archives: 0x11c11040
which might also be serviceable if you do a Intel/i386 installation,
rather than the your current 64 bit installation optimized for the
x86_64.
If you can do modem diagnostics under Microsoft, follow the directions
in SoftModem.txt
