Nicola, scanModem reports that your modem is supported through martian modem drivers readily available: To get the modem working you will need several things that are not present in your installation You need kernel sources and a compiler: /* The kernel was compiled with gcc version 4.4.5 and a compiler is not installed linux-headers-2.6.35-22-generic-pae resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready! The code linking utility, ld, may be needed and is provided in the binutils package The patch utility is needed for compiling ALSA drivers, and possibly others. If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing: gcc-4.4 linux-headers-2.6.35-22-generic-pae */ Download: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/martian-full-20100123.tar.gz run $ tar -zxvf martian-full-20100123.tar.gz $ make $ sudo make install $ sudo modprobe martian_dev $ sudo martian_modem Leave it running, open another terminal and run $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf then edit the file $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf remove the ";" add your username, ISP phone number, and password and a line "Carrier Check = no" to this file, save it and then try to dialout with $ sudo wvdial Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:0b.0: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Communication controller: Agere Systems 56k WinModem " CLASS=0780 PCIDEV=11c1:0440 SUBSYS=11c1:0440 IRQ=5 IDENT=Agere.DSP For candidate modem in: 00:0b.0 0780 Communication controller: Agere Systems 56k WinModem Primary device ID: 11c1:0440 Support type needed or chipset: Agere.DSP The modem has a Lucent/Agere/LSI Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal processing) chipset.
