Antony, scanModem reports that your modem is supported through agrsm-11c11040-20091225.deb package and agrsm-tools 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 If you cannot find newer dkms package, use this one here: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb $ sudo dpkg -i agrsm_2.180-7_i386.deb Download agrsm-11c11040-2.1.80~20091225.deb & agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all.deb from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ install with $ sudo dpkg -i agsrm* Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:1b.0: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I " CLASS=0403 PCIDEV=8086:293e SUBSYS=103c:3072 IRQ=17 HDA2=00:1b.0 SOFT=8086:293e.HDA HDAchipVendorID=11c1 CHIP=0x11c11040 IDENT=agrsm Driver=agrsm package=agrsm-11c11040 For candidate modem in: 00:1b.0 0403 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I Primary device ID: 8086:293e Subsystem PCI_id 103c:3072 Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: 0x11c11040 from Archives: The HDA card softmodem chip is 0x11c11040 Support type needed or chipset: agrsm Writing DOCs/Intel.txt The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem + agrserial driver pair. There are a few different chipsets which use this driver pair, but they use different code resources: Chipsets KV* PackageNames (most current as of November 2009) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11c1:048c and 11c1:048f 2.6.29 agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108_i386.deb or agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108.tar.gz 11c1:0620 2.6.31 agrsm06pci-2.1.80_20100106_i386.deb or agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106.tar.gz !! 11c11040 (on HDA audio cards) 2.6.31 agrsm-11c11040_20091225_i386.deb or agrsm-11c11040-2.1.80~20091225.tar.bz2 !!

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 ------------------- If you load the driver correctly, but the modem responds, it might be because: For candidate card in slot 00:1b.0, firmware information and bootup diagnostics are: PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name ---------- --------- --------- -------------- 00:1b.0 8086:293e 103c:3072 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: 17: 1813 271 IO-APIC-fasteoi uhci_hcd:usb4, HDA Intel --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:1b.0 ---- [ 0.292845] pci 0000:00:1b.0: reg 10 64bit mmio: [0xd8900000-0xd8903fff] [ 0.292912] pci 0000:00:1b.0: PME# supported from D0 D3hot D3cold [ 0.292918] pci 0000:00:1b.0: PME# disabled [ 11.788787] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0 [ 11.788873] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0 [ 11.788952] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 [ 11.789074] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 12.314656] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input9 The PCI slot 00:1b.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.
