Class 0703: 134d:2189 Modem: PCTel Inc HSP56 MicroModem
Primary PCI_id 134d:2189
Support type needed or chipset: slamr
134d:2189 is a PCTel HSP56 MicroModem 688T modem with the Oasis chipset.
Under 2.6.n kernels, it is only supported through the Smartlink slamr.ko driver.
The modem is supported by the Smartlink slamr driver
plus the slmodemd helper utility. Read the
Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.

Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
