Hi I want a problem with agere modem and mgetty. It's (mgetty) not answering the phone, but the modem is working correctly. I use debian stabe (lenny) with softmodem agere.

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 detailed instructions for Ubuntu Jaunty with 2.6.28 kernels, see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg01316.html 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.

If another modem card is present, then most likely 1002:4383 does not host a modem. If another modem card has not been detected, then possibilities are: 1) A Conexant modem chip is present on 1002:4383, as Conexant chips are frequently not detectable by ALSA diagnostics 2) The modem may be of the older non-PCI Controller Chipset (hardware) type.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev The kernel was compiled with gcc version 4.1.3 and a compiler is not installed linux-headers-2.6.26-2-686 resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready! The code linking utility, ld, may be needed and is provided in the binutils package If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing: gcc-4.1 make linux-headers-2.6.26-2-686 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 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.
