Todd, sadly it seems that your modem is NOT SUPPORTED. this line says that story: ./* Under Linux 2.6.n kernels, the chipset is NOT SUPPORTED . Read DOCs/InfoGeneral.txt about alternatives. */ Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 01:02.0: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Modem: Broadcom Corporation BCM4212 v.90 56k modem" CLASS=0703 PCIDEV=14e4:4212 SUBSYS=14e4:0002 IRQ=18 IDENT=Broadcom For candidate modem in: 01:02.0 0703 Modem: Broadcom Corporation BCM4212 v.90 56k modem Primary device ID: 14e4:4212 Support type needed or chipset: Broadcom Under Linux 2.6.n kernels, the chipset is NOT SUPPORTED . Read DOCs/InfoGeneral.txt about alternatives. Vendor 14e4 is Broadcom http://www.broadcom.com/ , now focusing on broadband tools. 14e4:4212 is the PCI id of a BCM V.90 56k modem There is no support under 2.6.n kernels for the 14e4:4212 modems. There is a driver for 2.2.n kernels called BCOM_WAN_V20. Search for it at http://www.dell.com However the code has not been updated for some time. For 2.4 kernels, a fix by Giacomo Comes must be used. See : http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-third/msg01652.html http://cengique.2y.net/~cengiz/BCMSM/ But this part encourages you to read more, There are BCM Subsystems 14e4:4d64 serving under Intel ICH series softmodem controllers. which are supported. Their AC97 codecs are BCM64 or SIL24. Kernels of version 2.6.6 or later are necessary. See success reports: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-fifth/msg02486.html http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-fourth/msg03690.html http://oboc.ucdavis.edu/Marik/inspiron/ The support is typically achieved through the snd-intel8x0m driver,c plus slmodemd helper. ====== end Broadcom section ======= Regards, Antonio On 7/22/10, TODD GREVIOUS <tlenterprise@xxxxx> wrote: > > I am trying to install my dial up modem on Linux Ubuntu. > > > > Thanks, > > > > Todd G
