Dear Nikolay, Marv & et all,
I have tried the agrsm code that worked in 11c1:0620 agere modem on an
11c1:0630 modem that came on emachines that I had, and it worked!!! I
am reporting success and thanking Nikolay and others who have worked
on the Agere LSI code.
Ran, make clean, make install(failed) and then used ./agrinstall to
install the modem drivers :

Martin,
Modem does work so you can safely install newer kernel(s) that may
come with PCLinuxOS or other distribution of your choice :)

!! 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.

If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.33-smp
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

Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
