Hi. I need help setting up my modem for my old gateway laptop.
Here is the modem data file:
-------------------------- System information ----------------------------
CPU=i686, Linux Mint 6 Felicia Fluxbox CE
Linux version 2.6.27-7-generic (buildd@rothera) (gcc version 4.3.2 (Ubuntu
4.3.2-1ubuntu10) ) #1 SMP Fri Oct 24 06:42:44 UTC 2008
scanModem update of: 2010_01_09
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:
Attached USB devices are:
ID 0483:2016 SGS Thomson Microelectronics Fingerprint Reader
If a cellphone is not detected, see
http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-878554.html
A sample report is:

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 00:1f.6, firmware information and bootup
diagnostics are:
PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name
---------- --------- --------- --------------
00:1f.6 8086:24c6 144f:1050 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM
Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:

yenta, Intel 82801DB-ICH4
--- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:1f.6 ----

(level, low) -> IRQ 10
[ 1.772501] serial 0000:00:1f.6: PCI INT B disabled
The PCI slot 00:1f.6 of the modem card may be disabled early in
a bootup process, but then enabled later. If modem drivers load
but the modem is not responsive, read DOCs/Bootup.txt about possible
fixes.
Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
if help is needed.
