Sam Near the bottom of http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php get the hsfmodem-7.80.02.05x86_64full.tar.gz necessary for your CPU=x86_64 Through http://packages.ubuntu.com you will also want to get the wvdial support packages for x86_64, to enable dialing: --------------------------------------- Package: wvdial Depends: debconf (>= 0.5.00) | cdebconf, libc6 (>= 2.4), libuniconf4.4, libwvstreams4.4-base, libwvstreams4.4-extras, libxplc0.3.13, ppp (>= 2.3.0) ---------------------------------------- among these Depends libc6 and ppp are likely already on your System If there is a failure compiling the hsfmodem drivers, get the libc6-dev package too. Packages manually downloaded can be installed, in the folder that they reside in with: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb Write to the List if further help is needed MarvS On Sat, Jan 9, 2010 at 9:00 AM, SAM <sa.monemian@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > -------------------------- System information ---------------------------- > CPU=x86_64, > Linux version 2.6.31-14-generic (buildd@crested) (gcc version 4.4.1 > (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu8) ) #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01 UTC 2009 > scanModem update of: 2009_12_29 > > The dialer utility package WVDIAL does not appear to be installed on > your System. > For Ubuntu users, there are at the bottom of > http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ > packages with the files necessary to install wvdial, with names like: > wvdial_jaunty_amd64.zip for x86_64, 64 bit bus systems. > wvdial_jaunty_i386.zip for 32 bit systems. > wvdial_karmic_i386.zip for 32 bit systems. > These are about 1 MB in size.
