John, I'm not an expert on the agrsm code, but likely: --------------- from /var/lib/dkms/agrsm/2.1.80-4mdv2009.0/build/HDA.c:23: include/sound/core.h:281: error: ‘SNDRV_CARDS’ undeclared here (not in a function) -------------- this indicates that the dkms package is not backward compartible with your 2.6.24 level kernels. It is giving good service with the Ubuntu Intrepide 2.6.27 series kernels However we do have an otherwise compiled driver package, working only with the 2.6.24-9-generic kernels. So there are three routes you cam take: 1) Upgrade to Ubuntu Intrepid. 2) sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.24-9-generic and reboot into the new kernel. THen from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ get agrsm-ubuntu8.04.1-2.6.24-19-generic.tar.gz - which will install drivers for that kernel agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all.deb - automates symbolic link setups and deposits info to: /usr/share/doc/agrsm-tools/ 3) Follow the more laborious instructions involving kernel-source: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/HOWTO-Agere-11c11040-HDA.html Some more expert on the agrsm code may comment.
