Peter,
scanModem reports that your modem is supported through
martian-20080625.tar.gz drivers:
Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 02:05.0:
Modem chipset detected on
NAME="Communication controller: Agere Systems LT WinModem "
CLASS=0780
PCIDEV=11c1:044c
SUBSYS=11c1:044c
IRQ=11
IDENT=Agere.DSP
For candidate modem in: 02:05.0
0780 Communication controller: Agere Systems LT WinModem
Primary device ID: 11c1:044c
Support type needed or chipset: Agere.DSP
The modem has a Lucent/Agere/LSI Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal
processing) chipset.
Support packages for 2.6.n kernels are at:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/
http://packages.debian.org/sid/martian-modem-source/
Always use the most update for kernels after 2.6.20, currently
martian-full-20080625.tar.gz
For kernels 2.6.20 and less, usr martian-full-20080407.tar.gz.
See DOCs/AgereDSP.txt for Details.
At http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/
get the martian-full-20080625.tar.gz and follow Readme-NOW.html
0x044c -- Mars 3 Perseus data/fax only:North America and Global board
0x044c -- Mars 3.2 Mercury data fax only when no eeprom is present,
North America DAA
But you need to hunt down some packages:
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
Look for linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev for your Ubuntu Intrepid and
install them, then you can follow instuctions provided in
DOCs/AgereDSP.txt
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
If you install the driver correctly and the modem does not respond,
you may read this section provided by scanModem:
Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:
--- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 02:05.0 ----

[ 0.600618] pci 0000:02:05.0: PME# disabled
The PCI slot 02:05.0 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.
Let us know if you encounter difficulties/achive success.
Regards,
Antonio
