That's on purpose. kernel drivers are packaged in two packages: a) one that doesn't need any rebuilds when the kernel is being updated like documentation, userland tools/daemons etc., and b) one per kernel that actually contains all the /lib/modules/... bits. The latter packages are called foo-kmdl-$(uname -r)-<version>-<release>... So you actually want to unpack some agrsm-kmdl package. But it will not do much good on a Debian/Ubuntu system as you need a package that has been built aginst the kernel you want to run it with. BTW looking at the package you examined: The fc9_92 indicates that you looked for the upcoming F10 packages, which officially will exist only from Tuesday 14:00 UTC, as F10 is not yet released, so some or all kmdls are not published yet. Take a look at the F9 or F8 packages instead. > MarvS > > /agrsm-0.20080721$ tree usr > usr > |-- libexec > | `-- agrsm > | `-- AgereMdmDaemon > `-- share > `-- doc > `-- agrsm-0.20080721 > |-- LICENSE > |-- README > `-- agr_softmodem > > > > > On Sun, Nov 23, 2008 at 8:08 AM, Axel Thimm <Axel.Thimm@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > On Sat, Nov 22, 2008 at 08:42:00PM -0600, Antonio Olivares wrote: > >> A thought occured to me, I remember that Axel from ATRPMS packaged > >> alsa with the symbols needed for the 11c11040 modems.
