Sorry for bother you, but I could not get my modem working by myself.
Thank you a lot

Welcome to kernel 2.4.31
With this Subject Line cogent experts will be alerted, and useful case names left in the Archive.
YourCountry will enable Country specific guidance. Linux experts in YourCountry
can be found through: http://www.linux.org/groups/index.html.
They will know your Country's modem code, which may be essential for dialup service.

Welcome , ALSA_version=1.0.9b
Linux version 2.4.31 (root@tree) (gcc version 3.3.5) #6 Sun Jun 5 19:04:47 PDT 2005
scanModem update of: 2010_03_18
The modem symbolic link is /dev/modem -> ttyS1
/etc/lsb-release not found
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:

If a USB modem or cellphone is attached and was not detected, please
provide available information in your request to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 3.3.5
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 3.3.6
linux-headers-2.4.31 resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.4.31
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 display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)

It has samples for a modem using port /dev/ttySL0, which must be changed to match your modem's port.
Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble shooting be necessary.
