Rami, Please join the List through the SUBSCRIBE link at http://www.linmodems.org and send email to the List, not directly to individuals, to benefit from the broadest experience!! With Linux unlike Microsoft, reinstallations are typically NOT necessary, and time wasteful RE: > /var/lib/dpkg/info/dkms-agrsm.postinst: 2: /usr/sbin/dkms: not found you have to install the dkms package first, then the dkms-agrsm and agrsm-tools packages Assuming Bjorn is correct, the quickest way to get online is to download kernel 2.6.27-11-generic support by getting packages from: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid-updates/linux-headers-2.6.27-11 http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid-updates/linux-headers-2.6.27-11-generic http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid-updates/linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic just get the primary packages as the dependencies are already supported under Jaunty They can be co-installed with with: $ sudo dpkg -i linux*.deb Then reboot with the 2.6.27-11-generic kernel, and run the: $ sudo agrsm-test Once you have service under 2.6.27-11-generic, we can later work on the 2.6.28 problems.
