Shiva,
I was talking about using the standard 2.6.28 kernel with the
dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386. However, it should work with the 2.6.27
kernel, too.
Can you try the following:
1. Unload the modules
sudo modprobe -r agrserial
sudo modprobe -r agrmodem
2. extract the sources
dpkg -x dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb tmp
3. Build & install them
cd tmp/usr/src/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0
make clean
make
sudo make modules_install
4. Try how it works
sudo modprobe agrmodem
sudo modprobe agrserial
sudo ln -s /dev/ttyAGS3 /dev/ttySAGR
sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
I am not sure if it is of any help, but I include my ModemData.txt file
here so you can compare it to what you have and see if there are any
differences that matter. I think the only differences are the Intel chipset
revision, and the GCC toolchain version.

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.

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.2.4
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.2.4
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.2
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.28.10/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.
Compressed files at: /usr/src/kqemu.tar.bz2
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 pppd properties:
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 269256 2007-10-04 23:57 /usr/sbin/pppd
In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options
asyncmap 0
noauth
crtscts
lock

proxyarp
lcp-echo-interval 30
lcp-echo-failure 4
noipx
In case of a message like:
Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html
Read Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0 wlan0 wmaster0
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble shooting be necessary.
