John, scanModem reports thayt you need agrsm-20090418.tar.gz Download it from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-20090418.tar.gz extract it with $ tar -zxvf agrsm-20090418.tar.gz $ cd agrsm-20090418/ $ make all $ sudo make install Please read the instructions provided in Agrsm.txt. Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 04:07.0: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Communication controller: Agere Systems Device 0620" CLASS=0780 PCIDEV=11c1:0620 SUBSYS=11c1:0620 IRQ=11 IDENT=agrsm For candidate modem in: 04:07.0 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 2.6.28 and later kernels. A short term fix is to install linux-image + linux-headers packages for earlier kernels. For detailed instructions for Ubuntu Jaunty with 2.6.28 kernels, see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg01316.html 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.
