Hi All, ModemData.txt follows (again, maybe it's different this time?)
I downloaded ALSA sources. I could only find version 1.0.16 of the
drivers and libraries, so I grabbed them. The patch wou
The ALSA version reported is still 1.0.15 even though I successfully
compiled and installed 1.0.16. Any ideas on why this is?
How do I apply the patch? It seems to be looking in a *-1.0.15 directory
even though I have downloaded 1.0.1.16 sources. I do not know how to
apply patches.
Also I forget what I was doing, or why. I just want my modem to work! So
anyways 1.0.16 compiled and installed but aplay aplay --version still
reports 1.0.15. Yes, I did reboot (twice) and it did not help.
Any help is greatly appreciated...

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
linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic resources needed for compiling are not
manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic
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 packages.
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:
