Ewald Support for Conexant chips hosted on High Definition Audio cards may require installation of additional packages, one of the alsa-driver-linuxant packages on http://www.linuxant.com/alsa-driver/ At the same time download the alsa-driver-1.0.17-1.patch , in case it prove to be later needed. During the hsfmodem install, there will be a message if there is necessary installation of alsa-driver-linuxant. First do this install, then try the hsfmodem install again.
