Jeremiah, Support type needed or chipset: Agere.DSP Do download martian-full-20080625.tar.gz from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/martian-full-20080625.tar.gz Also do download packages linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages: as scanModem recommends: ================================================================ Minimal compiling resources appear complete: make utility - /usr/bin/make Compiler version 4.3 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.28-13-generic/build However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files, in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ . For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default. Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions. In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com ================================================================ After you install the packages with $ sudo dpkg linux-libc-dev and $ sudo dpkg libc6-dev or in one step $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb You may extract martian sources: $ tar -zxvf martian-full-20080625.tar.gz $ cd martian-full-20080625/ $ make all $ sudo make install $ sudo modprobe martian_dev $ sudo martian_modem Fire up another terminal and run $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and it should find modem port /dev/ttySM0, in fact after running $ sudo martian_modem, it should be found and all that should remain is add your username, phone number, and password add a line Carrier Check = no and try to connect. Report back if you encounter difficulties.
