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 pre compiled 32 bit component. 2) For USB modems using the slusb.ko driver. 32 bit libraries must be installed to support th e 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.

Latest update with major credit to Nikolay Zhuravlev But see conflict issue: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg02753.ht ml For the 11c11040 chip with kernels 2.6.31 and later a change in a modules loading settingm ay be necessary. Within the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf (or equivalent for your Distro), change th e 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 pac kage is previously installed, if provides for future updates matching forthcoming kernels. -------------- end Agere Systems section ------------------- Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:10.1: Modem chipset not detected on NAME="Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio " CLASS=0403 PCIDEV=10de:026c SUBSYS=10de:0162 IRQ=22 For candidate modem in: 00:10.1 0403 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio Primary device ID: 10de:026c Support type needed or chipset: Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 01:00.1: Modem chipset not detected on NAME="Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation High Definition Audio Controller " CLASS=0403 PCIDEV=10de:0be3 SUBSYS=3842:1302 IRQ=16 For candidate modem in: 01:00.1 0403 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation High Definition Audio Controller Primary device ID: 10de:0be3 Support type needed or chipset: Completed candidate modem analyses.
