HH Your USB Agere chipset modem has been recognized. But sadly, there has not been a single case of success with these particular modems under Linux. There is some possibility that the Conexant High Definition Audio card may house a modem chip on the 1025:030d subsytem, which should be detectable under a Microsoft bootup. Lazaro can relate how to get the most recent version of the Linux Conexant available in Cuba. However should it fail to compile, we can not further help. Unfortunately commercial support for the modem code under Linux has ceased to exist. Most of the world is now using broadband for COMM, whose support code is Open Source and well maintained Under Linux modems using the Open Source serial drivers are still functional. Sadly it is most commonly difficult to ascertain whether one has such a supported modem, without actually testing it under Linux.
