Linux Bluetooth driver
This card will work with the standard Linux Bluetooth drivers as part of any recent 2.4 or 2.6 kernel; the HCI USB driver in particular is known to work.
This device is implemented as a USB device, which can be enabled or disabled with the FnF5 key combination
Linux Modem driver
Although, the Smartlink driver for Agere modems is able to communicate with the modem via AT commands, it cannot dial out (contradicting reports welcome!).
If your favourite distribution does not include a hsfmodem driver (search for "hsfmodem" or "Conexant"), you can try the one from Linuxant: http://www.linuxant.com/drivers (14k free as in beer, 56k+Fax license 15$, they explain this policy under: http://www.linuxant.com/store/faq.php )
