AR for x86_64 systems you can use hsfmodem-7.80.02.06x86_64full.tar.gz found near the bottom of http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php Unpack with $ tar zxf hsf*.tar.ggz and follow the instructions in the new folder exposed. You way be informed that it is also necessary to install from http://www.linuxant.com/alsa-driver/ the alsa-driver-linuxant_1.0.23.1_all.deb.zip , in which case. $ unzip driver*.zip $ dpkg -i driver *. deb and again start the hsfmodem install. If the is a mismatch between ALSA versions of the Linuxant and packages, you may lose audio support. But let's deal with that later.
