I found this link about modem drivers

http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php

I didn't knew what I have to choose
because I don't know about this note

Quote:
Note to Ubuntu Hardy (8.04) and SUSE (11.0, 11.1) users with HDA modems: Installing the alsa-driver-linuxant package is necessary before installing this driver.
what's HDA modem?
is it win modem ?what's defference if it's?

and the most important think what I choose
my info :
opensuse11
Intel(R) 536EP V.92 Modem
AMD 32bit

thanks

Output says your modem is an Intel modem, not an Agere one. Hence you shouldn't need the HDA stuff.
