Latest update with major credit to Nikolay Zhuravlev But see conflict issue: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg02753.html For the 11c11040 chip with kernels 2.6.31 and later a change in a modules loading settingmay be necessary. Within the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf (or equivalent for your Distro), change the phrase: options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 to: options snd-hda-intel power_save=0 or the agrsm drivers will not function. For Ubuntu related systems this can be done with: $ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf 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. -------------- end Agere Systems section ------------------- Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:05.0: Modem chipset not detected on NAME="Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio " CLASS=0403 PCIDEV=10de:03f0 SUBSYS=1458:a002 IRQ=23 For candidate modem in: 00:05.0 0403 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio Primary device ID: 10de:03f0 Support type needed or chipset: Completed candidate modem analyses. The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.3.3 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.3.3 The patch utility is needed for compiling ALSA drivers, and possibly others. Minimal compiling resources appear complete: make utility - /usr/bin/make Compiler version 4.3 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/build However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files, in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ . 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 or comparable Repository for other Linux distros. When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed. 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.
