Now you have me wondering about whether I missed doing the 'make' after
the 'make clean' during the attempted installation or if I simply missed
including that step in my message. I will redo the process making sure
I don't miss a step.
Thanks for the information.

Martin,
If you tried running 'make install' before running 'make' then the error
you received about missing files for the installation makes sense.
The reason I say that is based on the following:
The following sequence of make commands could be used to successfully
'compile' and 'install':
(1) make clean
(2) make
(3) make install
Notes:
The 'make clean' command is use to remove the files (the rm commands -
remove/delete commands) created from a previous compile attempt. In
other words, it prepares or cleans the compile directory for the next
compile attempt.
The 'make' command does the actual compiling. Hopefully; it's
successful, and you do not receive an error. Warnings are okay in
compiling, but an error means you did not successfully compile (make)
the modem driver module files (e.g., create the agrmodem.ko and
agrserial.ko modem driver module files).
The 'make install' command actually installs the compiled results (e.g.,
copies the newly created modem module driver agrmodem.ko and
agrserial.ko files,) to the required location (a directory) on the
system. The 'make install' command does other necessary actions to the
system for the install; e.g., creates a directory, etc.
Also, if (2) is unsuccessful, then there is no sense in doing (3).
I hope the above explanations on the commands used for compiling and
installing clarifies things for you somewhat.
Now, I turn you back over to the experts of this discussion list.
Regards,
Ken

As per the 1stReadMe.txt file in the 20090825 directory, I tried the

I believe that message about "struct_uart_info" is the same that I got with
an earlier attempt at this.
The make install failed. I also tried the wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and
that failed with a message about not being able to detect the modem.
I am not sure where this leaves the situation.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Rather the lethal error is here:

I remember an error of this sort in some other code.

If you decide to try Slax, let me know and I can email you the lzm

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.

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.

Later, it seems like there were additional steps to

Most

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.

I want you to know I have the agere SV92PP 11c10620
modem

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
