Mat,
The kernel specified in a ltmodem-PackageName absolutely MUST match
the boot kernel, Drivers for a particular kernel_version will not even
be percieved by an alternate boot kernel.

Marvin,
Thank you very much for your help and pacience!
Following Jacques' advice I tried installing a binary package. Installation
seems to be ok, but it seems is not possible to load the module.
I'm wondering if this version of the module (8.31.a8) goes fine for my
modem. As I can see in scanmodem output my modem is an Askey variant of LT.
My scan modem output:
UPDATE=2004_Sept_09
Providing detail for device at PCI_bus 0000:00:09.0
with vendor-ID:device-ID
----:----
Class 11c1:0441 (rev Communication controller: Lucent Microelectronics
56k WinModem (rev 01)
SubSystem 144f:110d Askey Computer Corp. Lucent Win Modem

Memory at e4901000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
I/O ports at d000 [size=8]
May I be installing the appropiate driver version for that modem?
I usually use that modem with a live cd of DSL distro. That distro brings
the ltmodem module built-in and the modem is autodetected on startup. So I
supouse there might be a way of installing it on debian. I'll take this
work with pacience and tryin' to learn more about linux.
Regards,
Matias

Mat,
For support of -----PCI_IDs-------
--CompilerVer-
Feature List: Primary Subsystem Distr KernelVer kernel default CPU

My compile script seems to have quit because in cannot find a file:
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-386/include/linux/modversions.h
Please check on this manually.
Everything else seems OK.
More broadly, you should upgrade to some 2.6.n installation in possible.
i no longer have a 2.4.n Linux, so it is difficult to troubleshoot
for these older kernels.
