I don't think they'll be posting a link. I received a private message from one of the moderators in response to a post from the live forum. Due to the fact Dell has to pay for the driver.

Ever since switching to broadband, I have yet to use a modem. However, when the need arises, I would be happy to pay a couple bucks (no more than $10) for it.

According to the Dell Wiki, they are supposed to be part of the Factory Installation Add-ons.

See: http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_7.04/Add-on_Packages

hsfmodem_7.60.00.06oem_i386.deb
Driver for Conexant HDA D110 MDC modem
E1505n, E1420n

I don't know if this is correct or not, since I don't use dialup.

It's bundled with the install. There is no download link that yet, and I don't think there will be one. They'll probably have user access via service tags.

I've been so busy with work, I hadn't checked back until just now... and I'm thrilled to report that the driver is available at support.dell.com !! When I choose my system (E1505), I can now select Ubuntu as my OS, and the driver for the Conexant modem comes up as a recommended download. Click, download to my local deb repository and done. I'll be testing it tomorrow with my fall-back dial-up service and if I feel industrious, I'll see about setting up faxing.

Thank you, Jesse & Dell Linux team -- this is the one thing that was make me absolutely insane!
