Shiva, scanModem reported this problem here if you had checked carefully: Currently, the dkms-agrsm code is NOT competent for 2.6.28 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. This is something that is being worked on at the moment and hopefully gets fixed soon so the modem can be used successfully.
