Re: agrsm 11c1:0620 modem installation on Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04

I used the "find" command as you provided and found two entries which I deleted. I then went to install the agrsm06pci-2.1.80-20090825 and received the following results:
./agrinst
Installing Agere Softmodem driver version 2.1.80-Red Flag NE 5.0
some files needed for installation are missing

I stopped there and dropped this note for help.
\Thanks.

Martin,

agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825.tar.gz  is the only package which may
provide service for the 11c1:0630 chipset
Best check that multiple driver sets are not installed somewhere:
$ find  /lib/modules/$(uname -r)  -name agr*.ko

If there are multiple. Best delete all and rerun the
agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825.tar.gz  install.
If this was not the last installed delete all and rerun the
agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825.tar.gz  install

It is not clear from your message below as to whether the wvdial
package is installed or not.
If not, from the bottom of http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/
get the  wvdial_jaunty_i386.zip
Under Linux
$ unzip wv*.zip
$ cd  wvdial_jaunty_i386
$ ls
install with
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

Then rerun the
$ sudo agrsm-test

If successful, it will write a file /etc/wvdial.conf   .  Edit it with:
$ sudo gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf
putting in personal info while deleting symbols:  <  >  ;

Then try a dialout with:
$ sudo wvdial

Upon a reboot the modem will be set up by:
$ sudo modprobe agrserial
You can check porsts with:
$ ls -l  /dev/AGR*  /dev/SAGR
and for driver loading:
$ lsmod  |  grep agr

Once you are online under Linux  install the dkms driver update utility with:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install dkms

Several weeks ago, I sent a message back that I had tried a couple of driver
packages to get my 11c1:0630 modem working.  Unfortunately, I have lost
track since then.  This is what I reported at that time.
I attempted to install the "agrsm-2.1.80limited" driver.  The results of the
install are shown below:
  ./agrinst
  Installing Agere Softmodem driver version 2.1.80-Red Flag NE 5.0
  some files needed for installation are missing


For kicks, I ran the agrsm-test.  The results of that are listed below:

  Loading drivers:

  Drivers loaded:
  agrserial              11088  0
  agrmodem             1184932  1 agrserial

  and symbolic link created:
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Sep  5 18:40 /dev/ttySAGR -> /dev/ttyAGS3

  Checking for utility wvdialconf
  Found /usr/bin/wvdialconf, preparing to run:
      wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf


  A reboot may be necessary before modem detection through:
      sudo modprobe agrserial
  Which will load agrmodem, agrserial and create the symbolic link needed
for:
      sudo wvdialconf



I also tried to install the "agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825" with the same
result as above.
Can you walk me thru what needs to be done now?


Thanks for all the help.

DONE but Martin the complete URL is


http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825.tar.gz

not just agrsm.tar.gz (as quoted by Marv just to show how one unpacks such
a kind of file).

Attached is the tarball packaging.

# tar zxvf agrsm.tar.gz
and see the 1stReadme.txt therein.
If you are not using the Deb installer previously sent,
the best place to unpack it is in /usr/src/ to potentially enable the
dkms support.

Jacques,
 put in the 11c11040 folder please.

This happens occassional

http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ is the
correct address.  I'll also send you the Debian installer variant

I have been trying to follow the recent messages on the 11c1:0620 &
0630
modems.  On the 24th, Jacques put a file at

http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem11c11040/agrsm-2.1.80-limited.tar.gz
 but I cannot find it.  (The path 11c11040 does not appear to exist.)
 Later, it seems like there were additional steps to install this, but
I got
totally lost trying to determine what should or should not be done.
 Most
recently (below), it seems that John got an 0620 working in Ubuntu.
I am far from a Linux expert (obviously), but could someone help clear
this
up for me so I can try to get my 0630 working in PCLinux?

Thanks.

Marvin:
  I want you to know I have the agere SV92PP 11c10620 modem card now
running reliably.  I went with a fresh reinstall of Ubuntu9.04 Jaunty
and
installation of the following:

agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all.deb
dkms_2.0.21.1-Oubuntu3_all.deb
gnome-network-admin-2.22.1-Oubuntu1_i386.deb
Dial-up with jauntyDebs.tar.Izima  This is a package consisting of
wvdial
with dependencies

Finally agrsm06pci_2.1.80~20090825_i386.deb

  It was all double click and go with installation of agrmodem.ko and
agrserial.ko to /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/updates/dkms

  It looks like at this point from the terminal sudo agrsm-test  would
have taken me to completion save for entering my name, password and
phone
number in ./etc/wvdial.conf.  Everything is spelled out as you go

  I had tried after running agrsm06pci_2.1.80~20090825_i386.deb

  sudo modprobe agrmodem

  sudo modprobe agrserial

  etc, etc using the page "LSI/AgereSystems 11c11040 chipset support
installation ,using dkms tools" from the Linmodems discussion board of
20DEC2008 as a guide but I got lost trying to find the file wvtest.
 sudo
agrsm-test rescued me.  The modem was found on /dev/ttySAGR.  While
trying
to configure the network tools point to point connection interface  I
lost
the connection and it appears the file /dev/ttySAGR was lost but sudo
agrsm-test brought it right back.  I then had to reenter my name,
phone
and
PW but it all went pretty smoothly.  My hat is off to you and the
others
who
have been so patient with all this.  Thank You

Yours truly, John W
