John, You might have been better off installing dkms and the agrsm tools packages: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all.deb See the following details found in Modem/DOCs/Agrsm.txt: For the 11c11040 modem chips on High Definition Audio cards, the driver resource is called dkms-agrsm and maintained at http://linux.zsolttech.com/linmodem/agrsm / , There are a few installation formats. First install your Distro's dkms package The dkms toolset automates compiling, including compiling of needed update drive rs when an update kernel is installed. Test if already installed with: dkms --h elp If not installed or on your installation media, check your distribution's reposi tory. See the example at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg038 63.html For Ubuntu, the repository is at http://packages.ubuntu.com. Comments are more g eneral compiling support are below. http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ has copies and some u pdates in Debian installation formats and related documentation and tools. There is a agrsm_howto.txt, though it's leading compilation section is not neede d for all cases below. There are a few cases of support implementation, depending on the host system an d particular chip type. The agrsm-tools package creates symbolic links and runs a first functional test, provided the wvdial package is installed. Upon download and copying into your Linux partition, installation can be done wi th: dpkg -i agrsm*.deb or one of the more sophisticated installation tools. For a few Ubuntu kernels, driver installation packagea are at agrsm-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.14_i386.deb agrsm-2.6.27-9-generic_2.6.27-9.14_i386.deb for 2.6.27-7-generic and 2.6.27-9-generic kernels ONLY. Resources are at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ For the modem chips 11c1:0620, 11c1:0630 and 11c1:048c(or f), the current confir med support is with the agrsm-20090418.tar.gz at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11 040/ See Josh Crawford's report: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eig hth/msg00475.html. The 11c1:0620 chipset is also supported by the dkms-agrsm package (reports Hugo Canelli) For implementation guidance, get the agrsm_howto.txt from http://linmodems.techn ion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c1040/ . However the leading compiling section should be skipped for installation done wi th dkms tools. For Debian/Ubuntu related systems also get the from http://linmodems.technion.ac .il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ the agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all.deb. Though lacking drivers, it automates setup of sym bolic links initiated by modprobe agrserial and also has a utility, called by: agrsm-test For kernels earlier than 2.6.26 the more laborious procedures. A simplest route is to get from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem /11c11040/ one of: kernel-2.6.21.0-22.i686.rpm linux-image-2.6.21.0-22_2.6.21.0-22_i386.deb as their module set contains the drivers, but just for kernel 2.6.21.0-22. For the Ubuntu 2.6.24-19-generic kernel, there is a driver package agrsm-ubuntu8.04.1-2.6.24-19-generic.tar.gz For kernels between 2.6.21 and 2.6.26 read the HOWTO-Agere-11c11040-HDA.html, which relates a laborious procedure involving kernel-source code. A single root/adm command: modprobe agrserial will provide for loading both drivers and symbolic /dev/ttySAGR link creation, if the following two lines to some file in the /etc/modprobe folders. install agrserial /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install agrmodem ; /sbin/modprobe --ig nore-install agrserial && test -e /dev/ttySAGR || ln -s /dev/ttyAGS3 /dev/ttySAG R remove agrserial /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove agrserial ; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove agrmodem && { if test -L /dev/ttySAGR; then rm /dev/ttySAGR; fi } ; true They will alternatively be installed by the package agrsm-tools_0.0.1_all.deb For the 11c11040 modem chips on High Definition Audio cards, the driver resource is called dkms-agrsm and maintained at http://linux.zsolttech.com/linmodem/agrsm / , There are a few installation formats.
