Joshua, scanModem reports that your modem is supported through hsfmodem drivers from linuxant: /* output from scanModem */ 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=1028:0233 IRQ=21 HDA2=00:1b.0 SOFT=8086:293e.HDA CodecDiagnosed=Conexant_ HDAchipVendorID=14f1 CHIP=0x14f12c06 IDENT=hsfmodem Driver=hsfmodem-drivers For candidate modem in: 00:1b.0 0403 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I Primary device ID: 8086:293e Subsystem PCI_id 1028:0233 Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: Conexant_0x14f12c06 from Archives: The HDA card softmodem chip is 0x14f12c06 Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem Writing DOCs/Intel.txt For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source package with full speed enabled is available, but requires driver compiling. Read DOCs/Conexant.txt For all code packages from Linuxant.com, either a driver set matching the boot kernel will be installed, or the drivers will first be compiled and then installed. The expert on modem software for Linux is "Support (Jonathan)" <modem.support@xxxxxxxxxxxx> From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php download hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full_k2.6.32_24_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip Under Linux unpack with: $ unzip hsfmodem*.zip Then install with: $ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb Subsequently, the modem should be found with $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Edit in your personal information with: $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf and try dialing out with: $ sudo wvdial. See DOCs/Testing.txt for details. ======================================================= since linuxant changed the procedure, the above advice does not work. There were churning too many updates for kernels, that linuxant decided it would not be convenient to build the drivers for *every release* that the driver now offered is a generic source one that could be used to generate the drivers for *any* kernel out there + those updated kenel-2.6.XX-YY-generic kernels churned out by Ubuntu The package for : 2.6.32_24_generic will not be found. Download instead a generic source driver and build it, get the deb one and run the instructions provided there (http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/install.php): http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/archive/hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full/hsfmodem_7.80.02.06full_i386.deb.zip ======================================================================== METHOD B: DEBIAN PACKAGE (*.deb) If you have obtained the driver package in DEBIAN format: 1. install the package with "dpkg -i hsfmodem_{version}_{arch}.deb", if apt-get or some other tool hasn't already done it for you. 2. if necessary, run "hsfconfig" to complete the installation, enter license information, or to change your modem's configuration. If you need to rebuild the Debian generic package from source, you can get the TAR package, and from the top directory run: "make debdist". A pre-compiled DEB package for the currently running kernel can be built using "make debprecomp" instead. AFTER INSTALLATION If an error occurred during installation, please see the sections 'BUGS' and 'REPORTING PROBLEMS' below. Once the modem is installed and configured, you may access it as /dev/ttySHSF0. Additionally, you can use it via the symbolic link /dev/modem (equivalent to ttySHSF0). If you have more than one HSF modem, the second will be available as /dev/ttySHSF1, the third as /dev/ttySHSF2 and so forth. Please review the permissions on the device nodes with "ls -l" to ensure that they are adequate for your system. The "hsfconfig" command can be used to change certain modem configuration options or recompile (generic packages only) the kernel modules after installation. Run "hsfconfig --help" for usage information. LICENSE KEYS / REGISTRATION To enable your modem's full functionality (high-speed 56k data and FAX), a license registration key must be obtained from Linuxant and entered with "hsfconfig --license". Without a proper license key, the modem can only operate in FREE mode, limited to a maximum speed of 14.4Kbps (V.32bis) and the FAX functionality will not be available. ======================================================================= also, should you build and install the driver and the modem is unresponsive read carefully the following /* 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 1028:0233 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: 21: 306 39174 IO-APIC-fasteoi uhci_hcd:usb4, uhci_hcd:usb7, HDA Intel --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:1b.0 ---- [ 0.393129] pci 0000:00:1b.0: reg 10 64bit mmio: [0xf6adc000-0xf6adffff] [ 0.393191] pci 0000:00:1b.0: PME# supported from D0 D3hot D3cold [ 0.393195] pci 0000:00:1b.0: PME# disabled [ 4.855350] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21 [ 4.855382] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 5.328336] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input13 [ 5.349265] input: HDA Intel Mic at Sep Left Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input14 [ 5.349421] input: HDA Intel Mic at Ext Right Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input15 [ 5.349535] input: HDA Intel Line Out at Sep Left Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input16 [ 5.349646] input: HDA Intel HP Out at Ext Right Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input17 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.
