Re: Chet Coltharp, USA kernel 2.6.28-11 generic

Chet,

Antonio's guidance would usual be correct
The best guess is that your modem chip is a Conexant type, hosted on
the High Definition Audio card also having Conexant chips
 & the Conexant chips are supported by Linuxant's hsfmodem software packages.

But Linuxant has not yet released drivers for 2.6.28_11_generic.
So you will have to compile your own by installing
hsfmodem_7.80.02.04full_i386.deb.zip
located near the bottom of
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php

>From the diagnostics, your system does have the minimal compiling requisites.
