Sorry I do not understand this better, but I am not sure where to
start...
I have a Lenovo (IBM) Thinkpad X61s with an internal Intel modem
Looks like the modem Chipset is the PM965
It is located in PCI slot 3.0
I can see the message: "pci 0000:00:03.0: PME# disabled" in the Dmesg,
but I am not sure if it is relevant. I assume it is.
I assume I will need to find a driver, but no idea how to find it.
Bsaed on the file below:
Does it appear I have a modem that can work or am I done at the
start?
If it can work, does it look like I just need the proper
configuration or do I need to compile drivers, etc.?
Any help is much appreciated.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thanks,
Mike C.

Some modem drivers can only be used in 32 bit modem on x86_64 systems,
while some others are competent on x86_64 Systems. Cases are:
1) http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg03119.html
for the snd-hda-intel audio+modem driver. Also applicable to AC97 modem
controllers.
In both cases, 32 bit libraries must be installed to support the
slmodemd helper having a precompiled 32 bit component.
2) For USB modems using the slusb.ko driver. 32 bit libraries must be
installed to support the slmodemd helper having a precompiled 32 bit
component
3) The hsfmodem and hcfpcimodem drivers for Conexant chipsest modes are
x86_64 competent.
4) agrsm packages for LSI/AgereSystems softmodems are not competent on
x86_64 systems.

===== Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) diagnostics =====
The ALSA packages provide audio support and also drivers for some
modems.
ALSA diagnostics are written during bootup to /proc/asound/ folders.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.4.6
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.4.6
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.4
linuc_headers base folder
/lib/modules/2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64/build
However some compilations and executable functions may need additional
files,
in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in
/usr/include/ .
For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also
required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default.
Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev
packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions.
In not included on your install CD, search for them at
http://packages.ubuntu.com
or comparable Repository for other Linux distros.
When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed.
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
