Folks,

Patrick,
did you get the driver:
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/archive/hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full/hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full-1.i386.rpm.zip
YES
If you did, then did you install with
YES
METHOD A: BINARY RPM PACKAGE (*.{arch}.rpm)
If you have obtained the driver package in RPM format: 1. install
the rpm
with "rpm -i hsfmodem-{version}.{arch}.rpm" 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 generic RPM from source, you can get the
TAR
package and run: "rpmbuild -tb hsfmodem-{version}.tar.gz" (if
rpmbuild is
not found, you might have to install the rpm-build package or if
you have an
older RPM version, try "rpm --rebuild ..."). If you want a
pre-compiled
package for the currently running kernel, you can try "make
rpmprecomp" in
the top directory.
as provided in instructions here:
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/install.php
You have installed the driver successfully because the lines show
something:

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>
Start at http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full for
eventually download of a hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full_k.???.zip package
with ??? the package type (deb, rpm, tar etc)
These packages have compiled drivers but will also compile a driver,
if there is a mismatch between the resident kernel and provided
driver.
The generic hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full.tar.gz package only provides
compiling support
Start at http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/downloads-license.php to
find the
hsfmodem package matching your System. For several Linux distros,
there
are
precompiled drivers matched to specific kernels. These have within the
FileName,
your KernelVersion: 2.6.34.6_47.fc13.i686.PAE
They can be found through
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php
A more precise location may be given a few paragraphs below.
If an EXACT Match with your your KernelVersion is not found, the
needed
drivers
will be auto compiled anyway. Alternatively, one of the
"Generic packages with source" near the bottom of the page must be
used.
Downloaded packages must be moved into the Linux partition (home
folder
is OK)
and unzipped with:
unzip hsf*.zip
The installation command for a .deb suffic packages is, with root/adm
permission:
dpkg -i hsf*.deb
while for .rpm suffix it is, with:
rpm -i hsf*.rpm
Read DOCs/Conexant.txt
Writing DOCs/Conexant.txt
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.4.4
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.4.4
linux-headers-2.6.34.6-47.fc13.i686.PAE resources needed for compiling
are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of
some
FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include.
The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed packages.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to
display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:

To enable dialout without Root permission do:

For guidance on FAX usage, get from

It has samples for a modem using port /dev/ttySL0, which must be
changed
to match your modem's port.
Read Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0
