Deb,

As reported in ModemData.txt, Linux support for your ESS 125d:1989
modem has not been implemented

 agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108_i386.deb does not include support for the
USB Agere/LSI modem
Uninstall with:
$ sudo dpkg -r agrsm048pci*


The  agrsm06pci-2.1.80_20100106_i386.deb does include USB support.
However full automation for the installation using DKMS  begins with
the Intrepid release, as constrasted to your Ubuntu Gutsy.  You might
be best served by starting with a more current Ubuntu release.

But if you want to try staying with Gutsy,

$ sudo dpkg -i agrsm06pci*.dev
Which will write the source code to /usr/src/agrsm06pc-2.1.80
Therein you can follow the instructions for proceeding with the
compile and installation manually.

The agrsm-tools package remains cogent, but
$ sudo agrsm-test
can will only be effective once drivers are compiled and installed.
