[riptide] modem install on some vaio models

[root]

I successfully installed and used Conextant HSF linmodem rpm packages in the 
following cases :

SONY VAIO  PCG-FX215 (both RH 7.1 and RH 7.3)
SONY VAIO PCG-FXA49 (RH7.3	only tested) 

 Both are Duron/Athlon machines , so you've got to get the correct athlon .rpm 
file for both cases.

 Conextant driver seems to work also if you get only the modem identified as
 AC97 (VIA     1106:3068* -  VIA MC97 controller for AC-Link modems)

 Good luck everybody else
  Cheers
