Hi Max, Looks like you've got ALSA down pat (that's half the challenge). You shouldn't need any of the other tarballs (alsa-driver is the big one.) The modification to ALSA-driver is to edit the file alsa-kernel/pci/hda/hda_codec.c (in the alsa-driver source dir) and add the following two lines AFTER the section of '#include' statements at the beginning of the file. these are the lines to add: EXPORT_SYMBOL(snd_hda_codec_read); EXPORT_SYMBOL(snd_hda_codec_write); Be wary of the trailing semicolons... Omitting them will cause errors. After you've edited the file, rebuild the alsa drivers (in the alsa-driver source dir) with the following commands: 'make clean' 'make' and then 'sudo make install' (all minus quotes, wait for the previous command to finish cleanly (i.e. no errors, warnings are OK) before moving on). After they're installed, reboot your machine to activate the new modules. Then, get this tarball: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-HDA-20080721-ALSA15.tar.bz2 untar with 'tar -jxvf FILE_NAME' move into the directory, and do 'make module'. If you get any errors, be sure to paste the output of 'make module' in to your reply. After that is done, copy the two .ko files to your modules directory as described in my earlier HOWTO e-mail. After running 'sudo depmod -ae', you should be able to do 'sudo modprobe agrmodem' and 'sudo modprobe agrserial'after which /dev/ttyAGS3 will be the port you can access your modem with. (for wvdial, etc.) Good luck!
