Re: Linux Newbee trying to set up a modem.

Robert,

You may try to get the modem:

Predictive  diagnostics for card in bus 03:01.0:
        Modem chipset  detected on
 NAME="Communication controller: Agere Systems Venus Modem "
 CLASS=0780
 PCIDEV=11c1:0480
 SUBSYS=11c1:5656
 IRQ=17
 IDENT=Agere.Venus_serial_drivers

  For candidate modem in:  03:01.0
   0780 Communication controller: Agere Systems Venus Modem
      Primary device ID:  11c1:0480
  Support type needed or chipset:        Agere.Venus_serial_drivers

Using the native linux drivers.  You will need to check by doing
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

and hopefully it finds the modem port.  Then you may edit file
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf

and remove the ";" and add username/ISP phone/and password.  First
check to see if wvdialconf finds the modem.

If the modem were not to respond for some reason or another, try to
follow the advice provided by scanModem here:

For candidate card in slot 03:01.0, firmware information and bootup
 diagnostics are:
  PCI slot       PCI ID          SubsystemID     Name
  ----------     ---------       ---------       --------------
  03:01.0        11c1:0480       11c1:5656       Communication
controller: Agere Systems
 Venus Modem

  Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:
  17:          1          0   IO-APIC-fasteoi

 [    1.361455] 0000:03:01.0: ttyS2 at I/O 0xe800 (irq = 17) is a 16550A

  The PCI slot 03:01.0 of the modem card may be disabled early in
  a bootup process,  but then enabled later. If modem drivers load
  but the  modem is not responsive, read DOCs/Bootup.txt about possible
 fixes.
  Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
  if help is needed.

Regards,

Antonio
