Hey All! :-)
Here is the MODEMdata.txt file. I wasn't sure if I could just attach it, so,
I am cutting 'n' pasting, instead---->>>>

YourName, YourCountry
Welcome to openSUSE 11.3 "Teal" - Kernel kernel 2.6.34-12-desktop
With this Subject Line cogent experts will be alerted, and useful case names
left in the Archive.
YourCountry will enable Country specific guidance. Linux experts in
YourCountry
can be found through: http://www.linux.org/groups/index.html.
They will know your Country's modem code, which may be essential for dialup
service.

Presently install your Linux Distributions dkms package. It provides for
automated driver updates,
following upgrade of your kernel. For details see
http://linux.dell.com/projects.shtml#dkms
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.
There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe* files
Potentially useful modem drivers now loaded are:
snd_hda_intel

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.5.0
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.5
linux-headers-2.6.34-12-desktop resources needed for compiling are not
manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.34-12-desktop
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
Checking pppd properties:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root dialout 370896 2010-07-05 14:34 /usr/sbin/pppd
In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html
To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options
In case of a message like:
Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html
For guidance on FAX usage, get from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/
get faxing.tar.gz
It has samples for a modem using port /dev/ttySL0, which must be changed to
match your modem's port.
Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble shooting be
necessary.
