Hi guys,
please help me to setup my modem. I attached the modemdata file.
All the best.

The PCI slot 02:0a.0 of the modem card may be disabled early in
a bootup process, but then enabled later. If modem drivers load
but the modem is not responsive, read DOCs/Bootup.txt about possible fixes.
Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
if help is needed.

SUBSYS=11c1:0620

IDENT=agrsm
For candidate modem in: 02:0a.0
0780 Communication controller: Agere Systems Device 0620
Primary device ID: 11c1:0620
Support type needed or chipset: agrsm
The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem + agrsm driver pair.
One resource site is http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/
Thereat get the agrsm_howto.txt and one of the agrsm-tools packages.
The initial agrsm_howto.txt compiling steps are only cogent to modems with PCI IDs:
11c1:0620, 11c1:048c and 11c1:048f chips.
They use the agrsm-20090418.tar.gz package.
The agrsm-tools sets a useful symbolic link and a agrsm-test utlity
For AgereSystems/LSI with Vendor 11c1 chips hosted on High Definition Audio cards, there may be support
through the agrsm resources (providing an agrmodem + agrserial driver pair) as an alternative to usage
of the snd-hda-intel driver + slmodemd helper. For the 11c11040 modem chip, ONLY the agrsm code is competent.
Your Linux distro's dkms package should be first installed, as it directs the installation of modem
specific dkms-agrsm resources, and also directs auto-installation of new drivers upon kernel upgrades.
Currently, the dkms-agrsm code is NOT competent for 2.26.28 and later kernels.
A short term fix is to install linux-image + linux-headers packages for earlier kernels.
For example, for Ubuntu Jaunty with 2.6.28 kernels, linux-image + linux-headers packages
for earlier 2.26.27 series Intrepid kernels can be installed. Search for them at:
http://packages.ubuntu.com
The primary dkms-agrsm resource site is http://linux.zsolttech.com/linmodem/agrsm/
whereat a few different packaging types are available. Debian type installers (supporting Ubuntu too)
are copied to http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ . Thereat the current package
is the dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-6_i386.deb is for Agere/LSI chipsets hosted on High Definition Audio cards.
Read the Modem/DOCs/Agrsm.txt for details.

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.3.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.3.2
The patch utility is needed and is needed for compiling ALSA drivers, and possibly others.
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.3
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/build
However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files,
in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ .
For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default.
Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions.
In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com
or comparable Repository for other Linux distros.
When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed.
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed packages.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options
asyncmap 0
noauth
