Miguel, scanModem reports that you have a pci modem and a USB modem AGERE one Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 005: Modem chipset detected on SLOT="Bus 005 Device 002:" NAME="Agere Systems, Inc. (Lucent) Systems Soft Modem" bus=005 USBmodemID=047e:2892 IDENT=agrsm Driver=agrsm For a detailed USB cellphone usage report, see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg03240.html For candidate modem in: 005 Agere Systems, Inc. (Lucent) Systems Soft Modem Primary device ID: 047e:2892 Support type needed or chipset: agrsm Writing DOCs/Intel.txt The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem + agrserial driver pair. There are a few different chipsets which use this driver pair, but they use different code resources: Chipsets KV* PackageNames (most current as of November 2009) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11c1:048c and 11c1:048f 2.6.29 agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108_i386.deb or agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108.tar.gz 11c1:0620 2.6.31 agrsm06pci-2.1.80_20100106_i386.deb or agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106.tar.gz !! 11c11040 (on HDA audio cards) 2.6.31 agrsm-11c11040_20091225_i386.deb or agrsm-11c11040-2.1.80~20091225.tar.bz2 !!

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 ------------------- This agere modem has not yet been known to work. The code is there, but there have been no success reports :( For the other one, there is some uncertainty, it seems that you might have a shot trying out the hsfmodem driver? but there are no guarantees :( Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:1b.0: Modem chipset not detected on NAME="Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H " CLASS=0403 PCIDEV=8086:284b SUBSYS=1028:0209 IRQ=21 HDA2=00:1b.0 SOFT=8086:284b.HDA For candidate modem in: 00:1b.0 0403 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H Primary device ID: 8086:284b Subsystem PCI_id 1028:0209 Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: from Archives: Support type needed or chipset: Support can likely be achieved through two mutually exclusive alternatives: 1) The hsfmodem software for Conexant chipset modems: Read DOCs/Conexant.txt The following ALSA alternative CANNOT work with Conexant modems. 2) An ALSA modem driver plus slmodemd.
