Re: ubuntu-9-0-4 driver IMPORTANT INFORMATION

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It seems the recent release of the agrsm driver is ONLY intended for 11c10620 and 11c10630 devices. 

it will NOT, repeat NOT work with any other devices, such as the 11c11040 or 11c1048x devices.
These will still need to use the agrsm packages provided by Zsolt.

Here the compile has failed. Check that you have kernel source files
installed, not just headers.

Here you've installed the modules that came with the package, not
compiled for your system.

The '3D' there is from copy and pasting email. In some emails, after
quoting, '=' becomes '=3D' (another on you might see is '=20', which
is a space). Remove the '3D' after the '=' in your wvdial.conf.

First you need to get it to compile, which means checking your kernel
source installation.
