Hi

I have run the ScanModem.gz and it is attached the result. Please recommend me a driver.

Thanks for your time

Hi,

yes, the DGC driver does officially support x86_64 (amd64) machines. We have modified the DGC driver download page to reflect that.

For Ubuntu x86_64 (amd64), the generic TAR package should be used:

http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/dgc/downloads.php#generic

The DEB package can also be used if you force the installation (ignore the architecture).

parvathy,

 The modem requires a dgcmodem package.
 From  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/dgc/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
download dgcmodem-7.68.00.12full_k2.6.24_16_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
 Under Linux unpack with:
 $ unzip dgcmodem*.zip
 Then install with:
 $ sudo dpkg -i dgcmodem*.deb
 Subsequently, the modem should be found with
 $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
 Edit in your personal information with:
 $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
 and try dialing out with:
 $ sudo wvdial.
 See DOCs/Testing.txt  for details.

The /proc/asound/pcm file reports:

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/2.6.24-19-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 needed. The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default. Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions.
In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com
or comparable Repository for other Linux distros.
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 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:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
