All/Marvin, I would like to point out that I have no problems with the "7mdv" driver (http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0.tar.gz) running under 2.6.28-10. The modem is HDA-based 11c11040. Are there cases of other HDA-based 11c11040 modems not working under 2.6.28? What kind of update is needed? Here is my log for 2.6.28-10: <<<< ndz@toshi:~/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0$ make make -C /lib/modules/2.6.28.10/build M=/home/ndz/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0 modules make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ndz/linux-2.6.28.10-build' make -C /home/ndz/linux-2.6.28.10 O=/home/ndz/linux-2.6.28.10-build/. modules CC [M] /home/ndz/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0/agrsoftmodem.o SHIPPED /home/ndz/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0/agrmodemlib.o CC [M] /home/ndz/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0/HDA.o CC [M] /home/ndz/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0/serial26.o LD [M] /home/ndz/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0/agrmodem.o LD [M] /home/ndz/SOURCES/modem/agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0/agrserial.o Building modules, stage 2.
