Re: Eric, USA Fedora release 9 (Sulphur) Kernel kernel 2.6.25.9-76.fc9.i686

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



 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-20080625.tar.gz

Before reuse, you should do a
"make clean"
If there is then a failure, just delete the whole folder and again unpack :
 tar zxf martian-full-20080625.tar.gz

 See DOCs/AgereDSP.txt for Details.
