hsfmodem package matching your System. For several Linux distros, there are
precompiled drivers matched to specific kernels. These have within the FileName,
your KernelVersion: 2.6.31_14_generic
They can be found through

A more precise location may be given a few paragraphs below.
If an EXACT Match with your your KernelVersion is not found, one of the
