Joe, I would like to recommend the following: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/Ubuntu/slamr-2.6.24-19-generic.tar.gz but that is for 2.6.24-19-generic kernel, and you are running kernel 2.6.24-21-generic Has someone built the slamr driver for this kernel kernel 2.6.24-21-generic? This way it can be uploaded to http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/Ubuntu/ so that Joe and other Ubuntu users can use it. Other users have looked for it and not find it http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?action=printpage;topic=3098510.0 Regards, Antonio On Sat, Nov 8, 2008 at 6:34 PM, Joe Kresch <joekres@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Only plain text email is forwarded by the Discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx List > Server, > as HTML can contain viruses.
