Class 0780: 11c1:044e Communication controller: Agere Systems LT WinModem
Primary PCI_id 11c1:044e
Support type needed or chipset: Agere.DSP
The modem has a supported Lucent/Agere Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal
processing) chipset. Support packages for 2.6.n kernels are at:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/
See AgereDSP.txt for Details.
However you may have problems with modem activation.
===================================
The modem interrupt (IRQ) is 255 . IRQs of 0 or 255 are not functional!!
The CPU cannot control the modem until this situation is corrected!!
Possible corrections are:
1) Within the boot up BIOS, change from a Windows to a
non-PNP/Other Operating System type.
Instructions for accessing BIOS are at:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/resources.html within:
Additional Resourcces.
2a) Add an option "pci=routeirq" to the kernel boot up line.
Here is an example paragraph from /boot/grub/menu.lst :
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-26-686
root (hd0,6)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-686 root=/dev/hda7 ro pci=routeirq
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-26-686
savedefault
2b) Same as above, but use "pollirq" instead of "pci=routeirq".
3) Within some BIOS setups, IRQ assignments can be changed.
4) On non-laptop systems, moving the modem card to another slot has helped.
5) Sometimes upgrading the kernel changes IRQ assignment.
=====================================
Though general
Compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.1
kernel_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/build
------
you my have to additionally install the linux-kernel-devel package for
some additional needed kernel-headers
