YourName, YourCountry kernel 2.6.26-2-686
With this Subject Line cogent experts will be alerted, and useful case names left in the Archive.
YourCountry will enable Country specific guidance. Linux experts in YourCountry
can be found through: http://www.linux.org/groups/index.html.
They will know your Country's modem code, which may be essential for dialup service.

CPU=i686,
Linux version 2.6.26-2-686 (Debian 2.6.26-17) (dannf@xxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 4.1.3 20080704 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-25)) #1 SMP Sun Jun 21 04:57:38 UTC 2009
scanModem update of: 2009_12_10
Presently install your Linux Distributions dkms package. It provides for automated driver updates,
following upgrade of your kernel. For details see http://linux.dell.com/projects.shtml#dkms
There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe* files
Potentially useful modem drivers now loaded are:
snd_hda_intel
Attached USB devices are:
ID 0bda:0158 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Mass Stroage Device
ID 1307:0163 Transcend Information, Inc. 512MB USB Flash Drive
ID 0c45:62c0 Microdia Pavilion Webcam
ID 093a:2510 Pixart Imaging, Inc.
ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)
If a cellphone is not detected, see http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-878554.html
A sample report is: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg00578.html
If a USB modem or cellphone is attached and was not detected, please
provide available information in your request to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
For candidate card in slot 00:1b.0, firmware information and bootup diagnostics are:
PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name
---------- --------- --------- --------------
00:1b.0 8086:284b 1734:110e Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H
Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:
22: 153 161 IO-APIC-fasteoi HDA Intel
--- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:1b.0 ----
[ 39.931077] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1b.0[A] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22
[ 39.931102] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1b.0 to 64
===== Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) diagnostics =====
The ALSA packages provide audio support and also drivers for some modems.
ALSA diagnostics are written during bootup to /proc/asound/ folders.
The ALSA verion is 1.0.16
The modem cards detected by "aplay -l" are: None
The /proc/asound/pcm file reports:
-----------------------
00-01: Conexant Digital : Conexant Digital : playback 1
00-00: CONEXANT Analog : CONEXANT Analog : playback 1 : capture 1
about /proc/asound/cards:
------------------------
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xfc400000 irq 22
PCI slot 00:1b.0 has a High Definition Audio Card
The drivers are in the kernel modules tree at:
/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko
UNEXPECTED HDA diagnostic outcome.
=== Finished firmware and bootup diagnostics, next deducing cogent software. ===
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
The kernel was compiled with gcc version 4.1.3 and a compiler is not installed
linux-headers-2.6.26-2-686 resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
gcc-4.1 make linux-headers-2.6.26-2-686
For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-26 may be needed to support driver compiling.
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed packages.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options

In case of a message like:

Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble shooting be necessary.
