Pradeep,
Sorry, but I am not an Ubuntu expert, but I will try to relate what
scanModem reports to us. You need hsfmodem drivers:
Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 01:06.0:
Modem chipset detected on
NAME="Communication controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. Conexant
SoftK56 Data/Fax Modem "
CLASS=0780
PCIDEV=14f1:2f50
SUBSYS=14f1:205f
IRQ=5
IDENT=hsfmodem
Driver=hsfmodem-drivers
For candidate modem in: 01:06.0
0780 Communication controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. Conexant
SoftK56 Data/Fax Modem
Primary device ID: 14f1:2f50
Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem
For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source
package with full speed enabled is available, but requires driver
compiling. Read DOCs/Conexant.txt
Support for the 14f1:2f50 and 14f1:2215 HSF modems is projected
early in 2007 from Linuxant.
From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
download hsfmodem-7.80.02.02full_k2.6.28_15_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
Under Linux unpack with:
$ unzip hsfmodem*.zip
Then install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb
Subsequently, the modem should be found with
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Edit in your personal information with:
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
and try dialing out with:
$ sudo wvdial.
See DOCs/Testing.txt for details.
Since your distro is 64 bit you may need to compile your own drivers,
and take a carefull look at this part:
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.3
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.28-15-generic/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.
Regards,
Antonio
