Thank you for your answer.

I've checked the RELAYS and FLAGS for my country, but, to my dismay
they're esactly the same both in the windows .cty and in the linux .inf
file.

However I noticed another FLAGS field which is different in the windows
.inf file, with respect to linux:

Windows .inf:
HKR,OEM, FLAGS,1,02,07,04,08

Linux .inf:
HKR,OEM, FLAGS,1,00,06,04,08

Skimming through the files and trying to spot differences, I've noticed
another discrepancy:
Windows:
%HSFModem%  = ModemX, PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3068&SUBSYS_118E10CF
Linux:
PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3068&SUBSYS_C0011106

To avoid tampering at random, without understanding what I do, would it
make sense to try the Windows OEM FLAGS setting, or the different
subsystem code means that this hardware configuration isn't really
supported?

Would it make sense to carry on a more detailed comparison of the fields
in the .inf files, in order to spot other differences?

If I have some guidelines on the logical way to procede, I may
investigate, and (hopefully) provide a working .inf file for the Fujitsu
C 1020 laptop, (until they change chipset, of course!)

Thank you, or merci beaucoup (if I guess correctly from your name).
