--------------------------  System information ----------------------------
CPU=i686,  
Linux version 2.6.20-16-generic (root@terranova) (gcc version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)) #2 SMP Sun Sep 23 19:50:39 UTC 2007
 scanModem update of:  2007_Sept_24


 There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe*  files 
USB modem not detected by lsusb


Several modems are supported by drivers with ALSA, the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture software.
Copying ALSA diagnostics to Modem/ALSAnahum.tgz
ALSAversion = 1.0.13

Modem or candidate host audio card have firmware information and diagnostics:

 PCI slot	PCI ID		SubsystemID	Name
 ----------	---------	---------	--------------
 00:1b.0	8086:27d8	1179:ff01	Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G 

 Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: 
 21:       1110          0   IO-APIC-fasteoi   HDA Intel
 --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:1b.0 ----

[   17.056000] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1b.0 to 64

 === Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
 === Next deducing cogent software ===

8086:27d8 is a High Definition Audio card, possibly hosting a soft modem.
Bootup diagnostics lack ALSA data.
 and a NEW HDA softmodem controller.

 The HDA modem codec file is: /proc/asound/card0/codec#1
-----------------------------------
Codec: Generic 11c1 Si3054
Address: 1
Vendor Id: 0x11c11040
Subsystem Id: 0x11790001
Revision Id: 0x100200

 The audio card hosts a softmodem chip with Vendor ID:  0x11c11040

 The softmodem chip 0x11c11040 is not yet supported under Linux.
 Code must be developed by manufacture LSI Inc.
 See details in http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00915.html
 Read InfoGeneral.txt about alternatives modem hardware.

The diagnostic outputs for this softmodem section have their raw information in
folders and text files under /proc/asound/ which you can browse. The information
is from files:

============ end Smartlink 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 Ubuntu Feisty, additional packages required were:
 libc6-dev linux-libc-dev
available through http://packages.ubuntu.com/ , if not on the install CD.
Such packages may have different names for other Linux distributions.
Try installing just the libc6-dev, then test the compile again.

In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:

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

In case of a message like:

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0 eth1
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

 Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
 should trouble shooting be necessary.
