THomas From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php download hsfmodem_7.80.02.01full_k2.6.24_19_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip Under Linux unpack with: $ unzip hsfmodem*.zip Then install with: $ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.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. Support for Conexant chips hosted on High Definition Audio cards may require installation of additional packages, one of the alsa-driver-linuxant packages on http://www.linuxant.com/alsa-driver/ At the same time download the alsa-driver-1.0.17-1.patch , in case it prove to be later needed. During the hsfmodem install, there will be a message if there is necessary installation of alsa-driver-linuxant The installation command for a .deb suffic packages is, with root/adm permission: sudo alsa* -i hsf*.deb while for .rpm suffix it is, with: rpm -i hsf*.rpm There may a message that "Dependencies" are not satisfied. In this case the Ubuntu/Debian packages to be installed are linux-libc-dev & libc6-dev. Package names may be different for other Linuxes. If not on your install CD, these packages can be searched for at http://packages.ubuntu.com. After download, they can be coinstalled with: sudo dpkg -i li*.deb Again try the alsa-driver-linuxant There may be a message that the patch must be applied. In this case get the ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.17.tar.bz2 Under Linux, this package is unpacked with: $ tar jxf alsa*.tar.bz2 Next the patch is applied with: $ patch -p0 < alsa-driver-1.0.17-1.patch See http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg00838.html for details on compiling and installing replacement snd-hda-intel + its dependent drivers. After the installation is completed, rerun the hsfmodem installation. Reboot and try to detect the modem with Root permission: sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Read DOCs/Conexant.txt On Mon, Jan 5, 2009 at 7:28 PM, Thomas Tharu <xteesquare@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I am new to Linux, and have only elementary knowledge > of computers. > I need modem help to configure my Dell laptop for > dial-up internet connection. > How do I 'join' the list at your web site?
