Steve, Your Fedora installation will support an older 2.6.18 kernel most likely. Please install with matching kernel-header package for compiling Then from http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/sv92/ download the suse-10-2a.tar.gz It is an update of the agrsm code from Agere/LSI, but only up to 2.6.18 kernels. Copy results Alan who is the maintainer for this package. If there is a success, your System can serve as a test bed for upgrading to 2.6.22 MarvS On 11/1/07, Stephen Silbert <ssilbert@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Marv, > > It didn't work. wvdialconf queries it but doesn't recognize the modem.
