FOLKS: I forgot to Cc: my message below to the list (Sorry for that, Jim).
Jim needs very little help from an Ubuntu moderate expert at this time.
Marv is travelling.
Jim runs Ubuntu 7.04 kernel 2.6.20-15-generic.
He has a Broadcom 4212 modem.
Although it is generally admitted that this modem is not supported, the
information obtained under Windows indicates a Si 3035 chipset
(SmartLink riser) which is explicitly supported by the full, not ALSA,
slmodem package.
Jim's attempt to compile the driver strangely failed.
The C compiler (gcc) is installed but it does not find the basic
includes such as stdio etc...
I have no Ubuntu machine to help him.
On my CERN RedHat-based system, these files are found at /usr/include
installed by the glibc-headers rpm.
Can somebody instruct James how to make his compiler work?
Thanks in advance, dear friends
Jacques
JIM: please always Cc: to the list, so that people can follow up.
Have you tried to run the trivial program which I sent you? It's the
best way to find out if your compiler installation is sane.

Jacques,
Thanks for passing that on to a Ubuntu person ..... since you've been my
only contact I'm sending on some additional information.
I'm Ubuntu 7.04 kernel version 2.6.20-15-generic
Would you be able to share your Ubuntu person's email address so I can just
take you out of the loop? I've heard nothing back and I'm dead in the water
for others issue's that need to be resolved and can't be because I've no
dial up connection.
Thanks Jim

I am embarrassed.
I have ZERO experience of Ubuntu (using RedHat based distributions).
Clearly, the glibc headers are missing in your system.
Why, I have no idea.
THIS IS WHY I ASK ONE OF OUR UBUNTU READERS TO HELP YOU.
