Complete support for compiling with:
$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic
In 2006, Intel appears to have ceased updates for Linux.
For the INTEL537 and INTEL536 chipset modems, the most current
support is provided at:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/intel/Philippe.Vouters/
But regular support is not available, see: http://archives.linmodems.org/24939
:
The outdated official Intel support packages can be accessed through:
http://developer.intel.com/design/modems/support/drivers.htm
Do Read Intel.txt which mentions an alternate support package.

Do use the following as the email Subject Line:
SomeName, YourCountry Ubuntu 7.04 kernel 2.6.20-15-generic
This will alert cogent experts, and distinguish cases in the Archives.
YourCountry will enable Country Code 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:
