The current confirmed support is with the agrsm-20090418.tar.gz at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ See Josh Crawford's report: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg00475.html. David, You need the agrsm-20090418.tar.gz update, not 20080203.tar.gz for your 2.6.28 kernel.
