Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is:
/dev/.udevdb
The kernel was compiled with gcc version 3.4.5 and a
compiler is not installed
To support compiling, get the
BreezyGCC_3.4_i386.tar.gz from
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not
manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed,
providing:
gcc-3.4 make linux-headers-2.6.12-9-386
