To: Ing. Luis Manuel Garcés Socarrás Disciplina de Hardware y Computación Departamento de Automática CUJAE Luis Please converse with Lazaro and Carey on problems of getting large modem code packages into Cuba. For your CPU=x86_64, Ubuntu Linux version 2.6.31-18-generic with modem Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G " CLASS=0403 PCIDEV=8086:27d8 SUBSYS=1028:01bd IRQ=21 HDA=8086:27d8 SOFT=8086:27d8.HDA HDAchipVendorID=14f1 CHIP=0x14f12bfa (this vendor 14f1 Conexant chip is hosted on the Subsystem) CodecClass=14f1 IDENT=hsfmodem Driver=hsfmodem-drivers In principle, the driver package is available at the bottom of http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php the hsfmodem_7.80.02.05full_i386.deb.zip with installation commands under Ubuntu: $ unzip hsf*.zip $ sudo dpkg -i hsf*.deb --------------- BUT your big problem is likely accessing the http://www.linuxant.com/ site. The hsfmodem_7.80.02.05full_i386.deb.zip package has large precompiled components, so unless you have an email account allowing Large attachments, we lack a way to send it to you. You may have to also install packages linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev also installed to support the driver compilation. But there is a Cuban site from which they can be downloaded: Off of the stem http://mirror.ucf.edu.cu/ubuntu/ they can be as: pool/main/g/glibc/libc6-dev_2.9-4ubuntu6_i386.deb pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_2.6.28-11.42_i386.deb Once under Ubuntu, install with: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb If the hsfmodem installation still fails with a message about alsa-linuxant, the needed package is on http://www.linuxant.com/alsa-driver/ the alsa-driver-linuxant_1.0.20.3_all.deb.zip But if an access route can be devised for the large hsfmodem package, all else is solvable. Lazaro & Cary FYI, the may to find the location of packages at http://mirror.ucf.edu.cu/ubuntu/ (or any other repository for which you have the stem address) is to merely give a command like: $ apt-cache show libc6-dev The output includes a line: Filename: pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_2.6.28-11.42_i386.deb which one merely adds to the stem URL of the Ubuntu repository MarvS scanModem maintainer Lazaro, The way to get such info 2010/2/2 Luis Manuel Garcés Socarrés <lmgarcess@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > Only plain text email is forwarded by the Discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx List Server, > as HTML can contain viruses.
