Could somebody analyze this attached file and tell me what to do next

[root@proxy ~]# ./scanModem


UPDATE=2005_Feb_ 10
ONLY use scanModem downloaded as:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanM odem.gz

 ./scanModem should ONLY be run within a Linux/UNIX
partition.
   If within a MicroSoft/DOS partition, abort with
Ctrl-C now !!!
   Copy scanModem.gz to your Linux partition and
restart.

Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg)
Kernel 
 on System with processor: i686
 currently under kernel:   2.6.9-1.667smp

 The kernel-2.6.9-1.667smp was compiled with
CONFIG_REGPARM, providing more compact and faster
code.

 The kernel was assembled with compiler:  3.4.2
 with current System compiler GCC=3.4.2

Checking for kernel-headers needed for compiling.
 kernel-headers have base folder
/lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667smp/build

 A /dev/modem symbolic link is not set.
 Checking for USB modems
 None found

Modem candidates are at PCI_buses:  02:00.0

 Use driver resource Intel-536ep-MostRecentVersion.tgz

 == Checking PCI IDs through modem chip suppliers ==

 Vendor=8086 is Intel, Inc. producing HaM and 536ep
host controller free (HCF) modems, 537 soft modem
 and AC97 and MC97 controllers managing a varierty of
non-Intel soft modem Subsystems.
 These subSystems often have PCI_IDs assigned by the
modem assembler, rather than the chip provider.
 Download available drivers through: 
http://developer.intel.com/design/modems/support/drivers.htm
 with Intel-537 types at:

http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df/Filter_Results.asp?selCat=all&strOSs=39&ProductID=1230&page_nbr=2
 Also check at:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/Intel/537/  
 for beta releases and perhaps Already compiled
drivers for some Linux distributions
 ---------------------
:
 The older 2.4.n driver pair have a dependency on one
other.
 with result that these messages may be seen upon
driver loading:
        depmod****Unable to resolve symbol in 536ep.o
        depmod****Unable to resolve symbol in
536epcore.o
 but function is NOT affected.
 Bur when the message is any longer, the drivers
probably have not been properly compiled.
   In which case carefully read
Modem/DriverCompiling.txt

 A problem maintaining CONNECT under the version 4.62
drivers was resolved
 by dropping back to the 4.60 version. See:
   
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-third/msg02127.html

  The Intel-537SP-MostRecentVersion.tgz driver package
may alternatively provide support.
  
  For Debian like distros, a modified install script
is:

  Beginning with Fedora 2  kernel-2.6.6-1.427,
kernel-headers needed 
  for compiling drivers are provide at:
/lib/modules/kernel-version/build/
  Thus upgrading above kernel 2.6.5-1.358 to 2.6.6-*
is Stongly Recommended
  
  pppd version 2.4.2 may not be fully compatible with
2.6.8 kernel releases.
  If an initial CONNECT is achieved without PPP being
subsequently established,
  drop back to a 2.4.1 version.  This has worked for
PCTEL AMR modem users,
  supported by the http://www.smlink.com  slmodem
software.
  Check pppd version with:
    pppd --version
  See 
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-fourth/msg03167.html
    
  
 For kernel-version 2.4.20-8 , a failure in utomatic
loading of PPP related modules 
 has been reported. It was necessary to manually load
with:
  /sbin/modprobe
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/net ppp_generic 
  /sbin/modprobe
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/net ppp_deflate 
  /sbin/modprobe
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/net ppp_synctty 
  /sbin/modprobe
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/net ppp_async 
 or dialout efforts failed.
  
  The Internet Configuration Wizard writes a
configuration file:
    /etc/wvdial.conf
  containing a line default line
    Stupid Mode = yes
  Better dialup performance may be achieved by
commenting out this line as:
    # Stupid Mode = yes
  Also non-USA Users may need to add to the [Modem0]
block:
    Init2 = AT+GCI=hexadecimal_country_code
  but test without it first.

  redhat is not yet providing pre-compiled drivers for
WinModems
