IRQs of 0 or 255 are not functional!! The CPU cannot control the modem until this situation is corrected!! Possible corrections are: 1) Within the boot up BIOS, change from a Windows to a non-PNP/Other Operating System type. Instructions for accessing BIOS are at: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/resources.html within: Additional Resourcces. 2a) Add an option "pci=routeirq" to the kernel boot up line. Here is an example paragraph from /boot/grub/menu.lst : title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-26-686 root (hd0,6) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-686 root=/dev/hda7 ro pci=routeirq initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-26-686 savedefault 2b) Same as above, but use "pollirq" instead of "pci=routeirq". 3) Within some BIOS setups, IRQ assignments can be changed. 4) On non-laptop systems, moving the modem card to another slot has helped. 5) Sometimes upgrading the kernel changes IRQ assignment. ===================================== --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 01:0b.0 ---- [ 0.580328] pci 0000:01:0b.0: reg 10 32bit mmio: [0xe6800000-0xe68000ff] [ 0.580337] pci 0000:01:0b.0: reg 14 io port: [0xb800-0xb807] [ 0.580344] pci 0000:01:0b.0: reg 18 io port: [0xb400-0xb4ff] [ 0.580373] pci 0000:01:0b.0: supports D2 [ 0.580375] pci 0000:01:0b.0: PME# supported from D2 D3hot D3cold [ 0.580380] pci 0000:01:0b.0: PME# disabled The PCI slot 01:0b.0 of the modem card may be disabled early in a bootup process, but then enabled later.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.3.3 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.3.3 The patch utility is needed and is needed for compiling ALSA drivers, and possibly others. Minimal compiling resources appear complete: make utility - /usr/bin/make Compiler version 4.3 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-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 or comparable Repository for other Linux distros. When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed. If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev If an alternate ethernet connection is available, $ apt-get update $ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel will install needed packages. For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list: Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition, they can be installed alltogether with: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options asyncmap 0 noauth crtscts lock hide-password modem proxyarp lcp-echo-interval 30 lcp-echo-failure 4 noipx In case of a message like: Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html Read Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0 Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
