Alan, scanModem only shows the following lines relevant: 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: I am not very familiar with debian, but there might be a little trick that can be done to get this going?
