Faraz,

Might be an issue with x86_64 versus i686?  Since your machine is 64 bit

--------------------------  System information ----------------------------
CPU=x86_64,  Ubuntu ,  ALSA_version=
Linux version 2.6.31-20-generic (buildd@yellow) (gcc version 4.4.1
(Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu9) ) #57-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 8 09:02:26 UTC 2010
 scanModem update of:  2010_02_25
The modem symbolic link is /dev/modem -> /dev/ttySHSF0
Distrib_ID=Ubuntu
DistribCodeName=karmic
AptRepositoryStem=http://th.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/


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


Some modem drivers can only be used in 32 bit modem on x86_64 systems,
while some others are competent on x86_64 Systems.  Cases are:
1) http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg03119.html
for the snd-hda-intel audio+modem driver. Also applicable to AC97
modem controllers.
In both cases, 32 bit libraries must be installed to support the
slmodemd helper having a precompiled 32 bit component.
2) For USB modems using the slusb.ko driver. 32 bit libraries must be
installed to support the slmodemd helper having a precompiled 32 bit
component
3) The hsfmodem and hcfpcimodem drivers for Conexant chipsest modes
are x86_64 competent.
4) agrsm packages for LSI/AgereSystems softmodems are not competent on
x86_64 systems.

 There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe*  files

ATM,
there are no x86_64 bit alsa drivers for your 2.6.31-? Ubuntu Kernel :(

Jonathan,
Is there a package that he can use?, or does the all deb package he used OK?

Thanks,

Antonio
