Chad,

Your Motorola modem chipset 1006 is not supported under kernels such as yours.
See http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/resources.html#motorola
2.6.x support exist only for the much older kernels 2.6.3 (Mandrake distribution) and 2.6.9 (Fedora Core 3 distribution).

ModemData.txt file attached

Hi, and thank you for taking this email.
My modem shows up in Windows as a "US Robotics 56K Win INT".

I don't understand the modemdata text file. If you can tell me which driver I need I would be very happy. I'm really starting to get into *nix and find it a very exciting and rewarding experience!

Please, if you will, explain the important peices of the data file.

Thank you,

Chad Robert

Completed candidate modem analyses.

A UDEV device file system is not active.

The kernel was compiled with gcc version 3.4.4 and a compiler is not installed

Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!

If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
    gcc-3.4 make kernel-source-2.6.18.1

For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 may be needed to support driver compiling
