RJ Let me try to clarify issues a bit. 1) Your system is now properly equipped to support compiling. 2) However the failure you encountered with the slmodem-2.9.11-20061021 resource:
`__set_64bit_v ar':
is a characteristic of recent code fixes, suggesting that in the case of adding these new fixes for 2.6.n kernels, compatibility was broken with requirements of your fairly old Debian 2.4.27-3-386 kernel. 3) The simplest thing to thus try with your current kernel is an older Smartlink support package. You could try either the last of the old series slmdm-2.7.10.tar.gz, or one of the early packages in the new series, say slmodem-2.9.11-20051009.tar.gz This is the simplest option you can try. Just try the compile again with the slmodem-2.9.11-20051009 instead of the slmodem-2.9.11-20061021 4) The more lengthy alternative is to replace the whole installation with a more current Linux, with which we know the the slmodem-2.9.11-20061021 resource works with your Smartlink modem. THis would bring the benefits of much improved hardware support under the current 2.6.n kernel. Debian derivative Ubuntu Edgy with 2.6.17 kernel is one option for a whole Linux update. My modem is thus working. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ for more details MarvS On 2/2/07, r jefferey <rjefferey@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi Jacques, After I ran scanMod em I opened the Modem file it created and I read 1stRead.txt. It directed me to the other files and I found that the more I read, the more overwhelmed and confused I became. I really wouldn't have asked for help if I could have found it and I have been spending nearly all day the past 4 days trying to get this installed. I apologize for being aggravated, maybe you can relate. Here...have a look. RJ ------- /lib/modules/2.4.27-3-386/build/include/asm/system.h: In function `__set_64bit_v ar': /lib/modules/2.4.27-3-386/build/include/asm/system.h:190: warning: dereferencing type-punned p ointer will break strict-aliasing rules /lib/modules/2.4.27-3-386/build/include/asm/system.h:190: warning: dereferencing type-punned p ointer will break strict-aliasing rules amrmo_init.c: At top level: amrmo_init.c:702: error: syntax error before "int" --------- these were lethal, breaking compile of the driver. Could be that this code package is too recent to support the older 2.4.27 kernel. There are two alternative routes. You could try compiling the older slmdm-2.7.10.tar.gz resource. Way as well try it. But if it fails, I would recommend installation the Very User friendly Debian derivative Ubuntu Edgy with 2.6.17 kernel, with much more current hardware suport and again using the slmodem package.
