Nikolay,
With the change suggested by you, I could compile and load
the agrmodem.ko and agrserial.ko.
agrmodem: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
* Hello Agere Driver **
Loading module Agere Modem Controller driver version 2.1.80 (2008-10-31)

ttyAGS3 at I/O 0x400 (irq = 18) is a AgereModem
Loading module Agere Modem Interface driver version 2.1.80.0 (2008-10-31)
The device file "ttyAGS3" was created but I tried to open the COM port
using "minicom", I got the kernel message:

Probably it's related to a failed access to make reference to the ALSA
objects ? Any idea?
I am starting to be convinced to upgrade the kernel and all
dependencies in the whole distro.
