Read InfoGeneral.txt about alternatives. ----------------end Softmodem section -------------- Vendor=1813 Ambient Tech was acquired by Intel with its HaM (Host assisted Modem) chipsets. There is no support under 2.6.n kernels!! Intel-v92ham-453.tgz 2.4.n kernels was the FINAL 2.4.n update for HaM modems, available at: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/Intel/ham/ http://developer.intel.com/design/modems/support/drivers.htm It is NOT functional when compiled under 2.6.n kernels. But under the 2.4.nn kernels, all HaM chipsets were supported, with a single EXCEPTION: the odd PCI_ID 1813:4100 modems. For the explanation, see message: http://linmodems.org/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi?1:mss:9448:200210:fbhcoigfcimgkjdedjad ====== end AmbientTech section ======= Completed candidate modem analyses. The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.2.3 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.2.3 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. When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed. If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev If an alternate ethernet connection is available, $ apt-get update $ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel will install needed package For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list: Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition, they can be installed alltogether with: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb Checking pppd properties: -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 269256 2007-10-04 21:57 /usr/sbin/pppd In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see: http://linmodems.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 Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts should trouble shooting be necessary. ========================================================== Checking for modem support lines: -------------------------------------- /device/modem symbolic link: slmodemd created symbolic link /dev/ttySL0: Within /etc/udev/ files: Within /etc/modprobe.conf files: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base:options snd-atiixp-modem index=-2 /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base:options snd-via82xx-modem index=-2 /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-modem:# Uncomment these entries in order to blacklist unwanted modem drivers /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-modem:# blacklist snd-atiixp-modem /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-modem:# blacklist snd-via82xx-modem Within any ancient /etc/devfs files: Within ancient kernel 2.4.n /etc/module.conf files: --------- end modem support lines --------
