Ryan, <quote> The modem has a Lucent/Agere/LSI Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal processing) chipset. Support packages for 2.6.n kernels are at: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/ , with current update martian-full-20071011.tar.gz See AgereDSP.txt for Details. Minimal compiling resources appear complete: make utility - /usr/bin/make Compiler version 4.2 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-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. </quote> Download the file http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/martian-full-20071011.tar.gz copy it to your linux partition, open up a terminal window and begin doing $ tar -zxvf martian-full-20071011.tar.gz $ cd martian-full-20071011/ $ cd kmodule/ open with your favorite editor the file martian.c, do a search and replace or goto line 656 and make he change below $ cd .. $ cd modem/ open the file mport.c and make the change below. You will need to make at least two modifications 1) Open martian-full-20071011/kmodule/martian.c with your favorite editor, do a find and replace function: search for `SA_INTERRUPT | SA_SHIRQ' and replace it with `IRQF_DISABLED | IRQF_SHARED' in kmodule/martian.c: replace SA_INTERRUPT | SA_SHIRQ, by IRQF_DISABLED | IRQF_SHARED, and in kmodule/Makefile replace CPPFLAGS += -DKMARTIAN_STAMP=20061202 by KBUILD_CPPFLAGS += -DKMARTIAN_STAMP=20061202 as suggested by the patch sent by Stephan Puch: *** martian.c 2008-01-25 17:58:35.245626264 +0100 --- martian.c-work 2008-01-25 17:58:28.924387700 +0100 *************** *** 656,662 **** ret = request_irq( metrics->irq, martian_isr, !

Try to connect to your ISP and report back success/failure. I hope that you do not run into trouble and should you run into any, please report back to the list. The kernel 2.6.24-16 < 2.6.25 which causes certain troubles, so you should be safe.
