B, Baker, Then in in this case the patch utility is needed. as scanModem reports 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 Look for the patch utility on Linuxant page and install as directions should be given in Modem/DOCs/Conexant.txt Regards, Antonio On 8/10/09, pestkop@xxxxxxxxx <pestkop@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello Antonio, > > I have a new problem. > see below: > Selecting previously deselected package hsfmodem. > (Reading database ... 102003 files and directories currently installed.) > Unpacking hsfmodem (from > hsfmodem_7.80.02.04full_k2.6.28_11_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb) ... > dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of hsfmodem: > hsfmodem depends on alsa-driver-linuxant; however: > Package alsa-driver-linuxant is not installed. > dpkg: error processing hsfmodem (--install): > dependency problems - leaving unconfigured > Errors were encountered while processing: > hsfmodem > > Thanks in advance. > B Baker > > > Antonio Olivares writes: > >> B Baker, >> >> scanModem reports the following information: >> >> The dialer utility package WVDIAL does not appear to be installed on >> your System. >> Please read Modem/DOCs/wvdial.txt >> >> PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name >> ---------- --------- --------- -------------- >> 02:0d.0 14f1:2013 155d:8850 Communication controller: Conexant >> Systems, Inc.
