If I understood you correctly, I unpacked the agrsm-2.1.80-5mdv2009
package and copied the serial26.c from there to the directory for the
7mdv package. I retried the make command and got the same errors.
Please correct me if I misunderstood.
I just checked for a new kernel and one is not available for PCLinux. I
guess I will wait for Nikolay to do his majic.
Thanks.

was reproduced using Ubuntu linux-headers-2.6.25-2-386.]
However per example below, compiled were fine with both
2.6.28-11-generic and 2.6.27-11-generic linux-header resources. So it
appears that the recent fixes Nikolay did broke backward compatible
with kernels earlier than 2.6.7.
Nikolay can likely fix this easily. Or perhaps you can upgrade to a
2.6.27 kernel.
Also, you could try using the serial26.c from the prior
dkms--agrsm-2.1.80-?mdv series package

The code with Nikolay's patches installed has been assembled in
packages
dkms-agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0.tar.gz
dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb
and are being sent to Jacques for mounting in
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/
whereat useful companion packages are the agrsm-tools and
agrsm_howto.txt
Prior installation of dkms support is necessary.
Install the deb package in Ubuntu with:
$ sudo dkms*.deb
For other distros
The dkms-agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0.tar.gz has a setup file to be
executed with Rood/Adm permission as:
./setup
Zsolt will likely make a comparable RPM installer which will be
available presently at

Marvin,
Ok, I see where the problem is. Here is the patch updated for 2.6.28
along with
some further improvements. This time it is against the
agrsm-2.1.80-6mdv2009.0.tar.gz sources tarball you sent me on May 14.
I have installed 2.6.28.10 and built the driver successfully. The
wvdialconf
runs fine, too.
I am not sure what 2.6.28.11 is, I couldn't find it on ftp.kernel.org.
I
hope
it is close enough to 2.6.28.10.

Nikolay,
There is the problem below under Ubuntu 2.6.28-11-generic , last
paragraph below.
However the compile is OK with your prior patch applied to
agrsm-2.1.80-6mdv2009.0, resulting in the
agrsm-2.1.80-6mdv2009.0.tar.gz, I sent you earlier.

Bjorn/All,
I played with the source a bit more this morning. This is the patch
against
the agrsm-2.1.80-4mdv2009.0.tgz sources available at the Zsolt's
site.
It does two things:
(1) Adds support for the 2.6.27-rc9, 2.6.29.1 (and maybe 2.6.28)
kernel
(2) Changes the Makefile to use the standard 2.6 kbuild procedure
used for the linux modules [described in
Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt]
Before applying the patch and running make, please rename the file
agrmodemlib.o to agrmodemlib.o_shipped . This will help the kbuild
to recognize this is a pre-build binary coming from elsewhere,
so that 'make clean' will not destroy it.
After the patch, build & install like this:
$ sudo modprobe -r agrserial
$ sudo modprobe -r agrmodem
$ make
$ sudo make modules_install
$ sudo modprobe agrmodem
$ sudo modprobe agrserial
$ sudo ln -s /dev/ttyAGS3 /dev/ttySAGR
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
wvdialconf was successful on my notebook that has the 11c11040 chip on
HDA, but
I cannot test beyond that -- I don't have an actual phone line here.

Thus spake Bjorn Wielens (Uniacke1@xxxxxxxx):
Hi,
Zsolt's sources are confirmed to work with 2.6.27 kernels.
However, we are still unsure about 2.6.28, and I will be able to try
and
experiment with 2.6.29 as soon as I can locate the correct packages
for
my distro.
You are likely correct about the problem, but there may be other
issues
as well.
Bjorn.

Antonio,
Those sources are too old to work with the kernels >= 2.6.27
You may want to have a look at the sources located at
http://linux.zsolttech.com/linmodem/agrsm/ and hack those with
the patch I attach here. I used it to get the driver working
with the 2.6.27-rc9 kernel.
Note that the patched sources may build and still not work with
the recent kernels (28 and higher).
I guess the HDA.c stuff in that driver is out of sync with
the current ALSA developments in the 29 kernel anyway.
