There are two clear success reports using
linux-image-2.6.21.0-22_2.6.21.0-22_i386.deb, which is indeed the only
current choice for the 11c11040 chipset modems. So your problem is
likely that the x86_64 motherboard is not compatible with the
kernel+drivers compiled for an i586 processor.
With respect to dialout under the Zoom V.92 PC, try shortening the
LoginName to souzavonessen.
Also if you are not in the USA, you should set a Country Code line in
wvdial.conf
Init2 = AT+CGI=hexadecimal_country_code
