Hi, I'm having problems with the modem above. I've installed agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108_i386 drivers, since scanmodem reports it as 11c1:048c. Installation was good. I've also installed wvdial and agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all. Installation ok. Then I run agrsm-test and the result is: Loading drivers: Drivers loaded: agrserial 9449 0 agrmodem 1183563 1 agrserial and symbolic link created: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2010-12-30 17:04 /dev/ttySAGR -> /dev/ttyAGS3 Checking for utility wvdialconf Found /usr/bin/wvdialconf, preparing to run: wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0 S1 S2 S3 ttySAGR<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 2400 baud, next try: 9600 baud ttySAGR<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 9600 baud, next try: 115200 baud ttySAGR<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- and failed too at 115200, giving up. What can I do now? Could you please help me. Thanks in advance Ciao Francesco

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 ------------------- Completed candidate modem analyses. The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.4.5 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.4.5 linux-headers-2.6.35-24-generic resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready! If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing: linux-headers-2.6.35-24-generic 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.
