Hi, I gave up on the motorola 5600, now i m trying this one, agrsm-ubuntu-2.6.20-16-generic.tar.gz just didn't work. Does it use sl-modem-daemon? Thanks in advance. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ALSAversion 1.0.13 USB modem not detected by lsusb Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information: PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name ---------- --------- --------- -------------- 00:0a.0 11c1:048c 11c1:044c Communication controller: Agere Systems V.92 56K WinModem Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:0a.0 ---- === Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. === === Next deducing cogent software === For candidate modem in PCI bus: 00:0a.0 Class 0780: 11c1:048c Communication controller: Agere Systems V.92 56K WinModem Primary PCI_id 11c1:048c Support type needed or chipset: Agere.SV2P_potentially_supported Vendor 11c1 is Lucent Technologies with modem technology now under LSI Inc. Their Linux code developer/maintainer is Soumyendu Sarkar. Support for a chipset and its continued maintenance is only initiated at the request of a major chipset buyer, or comparable sponsor. Several different modem chipset types are produced: with varying support under Linux.

See: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00849.html http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00970.html Interaction with experts will likely be necessary to get any of these modems working. -------------- end Agere Systems section ------------------- Completed candidate modem analyses. The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2 Minimal compiling resources appear complete: make utility - /usr/bin/make Compiler version 4.1 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/build However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files, in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ . For martian_modem, additional required packages are libc6-dev (and for Debian/Ubuntu, linux-libc-dev). The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default. If a driver compilation files with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example. Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list: $ sudo apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel While some of the files may be on the install CD, others may have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com For Ubunut feisty, additional packages required were: build-essential curl debhelper dpkg-dev g++ g++-4.1 gettext git-core gitk html2text intltool-debian kernel-package kernel-wedge libc6-dev libcurl3-gnutls libdigest-sha1-perl liberror-perl libstdc++6-4.1-dev linux-libc-dev po-debconf rcs tcl8.4 tk8.4 Checking pppd properties: -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 269224 2007-04-05 00:41 /usr/sbin/pppd In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see: http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html To enable dialout without Root permission do: $ su - root (not for Ubuntu) sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd or under Ubuntu related Linuxes sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options asyncmap 0 noauth crtscts lock hide-password modem proxyarp lcp-echo-interval 30 lcp-echo-failure 4 noipx In case of a message like: Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth1 Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
