The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem +
agrserial driver pair.
There are a few different chipsets which use this driver pair, but
they use different code resources:

* KV == latest kernel release with a reported success
!! Latest update with major credit to Nikolay Zhuravlev
But see conflict issue:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg02753.html
Report from Bjorn Wielens:
Please note- trying to load the modules on a OpenSuSE 11.2 system gives
an error about the module_version symbol. Using:
# modprobe --force agrmodem
# modprobe --force agrserial
is necessary to load the drivers, and does not appear to cause ill effects.
All of the above packages are dkms competent. This means that if your
Linux distros dkms package
is previously installed, if provides for future updates matching
forthcoming kernels.
Download the following packages and copy them to your linux partition:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-11c11040-2.1.80~20091225.tar.bz2
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all.deb
Read carefully the file Modem/DOCs/Agere.txt install the dkms package
and then run it to install the agrsm-11c11040-2.1.80-20091225.tar.bz2
package. Hopefully, a nice howto appears to do this, so that other
users don't have too much trouble.
ScanModem also reports that you do not have wvdial installed and how
you can install it:
The dialer utility package WVDIAL does not appear to be installed on
your System.
For Ubuntu users, there are at the bottom of
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/
packages with the files necessary to install wvdial, with names like:
wvdial_jaunty_amd64.zip for x86_64, 64 bit bus systems.
wvdial_jaunty_i386.zip for 32 bit systems.
wvdial_karmic_i386.zip for 32 bit systems.
These are about 1 MB in size. After downloaded and copied into your
Linux partition:
$ unzip wv*.zip
Within the new folder:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
will complete the wvdial installation
Please read Modem/DOCs/wvdial.txt for usage information.
Presently install your Linux Distributions dkms package. It provides
for automated driver updates,
following upgrade of your kernel. For details see

Antonio
