Jose,
    Please join the List to receive continuing info on the 11c11040
modems.  An update of the agrsm code seems necessary for service under
the  2.6.28 modems.  But if you install from the prior Intrepid
release packages for:
 linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic, linux-headers-2.6.27-11,
linux-headers-2.6.27-11-generic and wvdial (if not installed already)
under a
then the following should get you on line under a 2.6.27-11-generic bootup

---------------
For AgereSystems/LSI 11c11040 chip hosted on High Definition Audio
cards, your Linux
Distro's dkms package should be first installed, as it directs the
installation of modem
specific dkms-agrsm resources. For an example of what to expect, read
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg03863.html

 dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb is available at
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/
The .deb packages can be manually installed by:
$  dpkg -i dkms*.deb agrsm*.deb
which will sequentially process dkms, dkms-agrsm and the agrsm-tools
packages.

After the installations run as Root:
# agrsm-test
