Ran scanModem, Agere LT modem, compiled martian-full-20080407 as
recommended (2.6.18 kernel, so it said to use this, not a newer
version). Everything seemed to go fine until first run of wvdial,
which produced the following:
(Further below are the output of demsg after the crash, output of the
compile and install, and finally ModemData.txt.)
Help?!? Thanks!!!

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev.tdb
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 3.4.5
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 3.4.5
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 3.4
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.18.1/build
However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files,
in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed
in /usr/include/ .
For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also
required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default.
Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev
packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions.
In not included on your install CD, search for them at
http://packages.ubuntu.com
or comparable Repository for other Linux distros.
When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed.
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of
some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include.
The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed packages.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to
display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes

For guidance on FAX usage, get from

It has samples for a modem using port /dev/ttySL0, which must be
changed to match your modem's port.
