Cant seem to compile agrsm-20080626 on my machine. Have loaded the kernel
headers but consistently get the same make error. Copy of my make output and
ModemData.txt follow.

Primary device ID: 11c1:048c
Support type needed or chipset: agrsm
The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem + agrsm
driver pair.
One resource site is
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/
Thereat get the agrsm_howto.txt and one of the agrsm-tools packages.
The initial agrsm_howto.txt compiling steps are only cogent to modems with
PCI IDs:
11c1:0620, 11c1:048c and 11c1:048f chips.
They use the agrsm-20090418.tar.gz package.
The agrsm-tools sets a useful symbolic link and a agrsm-test utlity
For AgereSystems/LSI with Vendor 11c1 chips hosted on High Definition Audio
cards, there may be support
through the agrsm resources (providing an agrmodem + agrserial driver pair)
as an alternative to usage
of the snd-hda-intel driver + slmodemd helper. For the 11c11040 modem chip,
ONLY the agrsm code is competent.
Your Linux distro's dkms package should be first installed, as it directs
the installation of modem
specific dkms-agrsm resources, and also directs auto-installation of new
drivers upon kernel upgrades.
Currently, the dkms-agrsm code is NOT competent for 2.26.28 and later
kernels.
A short term fix is to install linux-image + linux-headers packages for
earlier kernels.
For example, for Ubuntu Jaunty with 2.6.28 kernels, linux-image +
linux-headers packages
for earlier 2.26.27 series Intrepid kernels can be installed. Search for
them at:
http://packages.ubuntu.com
The primary dkms-agrsm resource site is
http://linux.zsolttech.com/linmodem/agrsm/
whereat a few different packaging types are available. Debian type
installers (supporting Ubuntu too)
are copied to http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ .
Thereat the current package
is the dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-6_i386.deb is for Agere/LSI chipsets hosted on High
Definition Audio cards.
Read the Modem/DOCs/Agrsm.txt for details.

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.3
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.3
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.1
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/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.
Compressed files at: /usr/src/lirc-modules.tar.bz2
/usr/src/martian-modem.tar.bz2
For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-26
may be needed to support driver compiling.
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 pppd properties:
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 269156 2008-11-29 06:48 /usr/sbin/pppd
In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html
To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options
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.
Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble shooting
be necessary.
