Go to the Linmodems mailing list, and look at the things people are 
getting to work with their Linux machines today. Most of those chips can 
be programmed for 8k sampling, although as modems they usually sample at 
9.6k second (It can simply the maths a bit, even though it means working 
with more samples). From a quick scan I did a year or two ago, the 
source code for most of the drivers gives you the starting point you need.
