Marv, Ian said in his original email that he had run an update and had the latest kernel. But as you can see, he's not using it yet. Ian, you need to tell your system to use the latest kernel you have installed. I don't know the details of CentOS, so I don't know if you have lilo or grub. If lilo, edit /etc/lilo.conf and run lilo; if you have grub, then edit /etc/grub/menu.lst and run grub-install. > MarvS > > On Fri, Apr 23, 2010 at 10:07 PM, Ian Barnett <iancbarnett@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> >> Marvin, I installed the kernel headers for my kernel and rebooted (uname -r was not matching the src version - now it does) >> >> I then ran make and got the following, any ideas? >> >> >> make >> make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.15.1.el5xen/build M=/root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106 modules >> make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-164.15.1.el5-xen-i686' >> CC [M] /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.o >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c: In function âx_request_irqâ: >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:280: warning: passing argument 2 of ârequest_irqâ from incompatible pointer type >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:447:63: error: macro "INIT_WORK" requires 3 arguments, but only 2 given >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c: In function âx_task_queue_initâ: >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:447: error: âINIT_WORKâ undeclared (first use in this function) >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:447: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:447: error: for each function it appears in.) >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:445: warning: unused variable âx_tqueueâ >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:459:42: error: macro "INIT_WORK" requires 3 arguments, but only 2 given >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c: In function âx_task_queue_init_usbâ: >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:459: error: âINIT_WORKâ undeclared (first use in this function) >> /root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.c:457: warning: unused variable âx_tqueueâ >> make[2]: *** [/root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106/agrsoftmodem.o] Error 1 >> make[1]: *** [_module_/root/agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106] Error 2 >> make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-164.15.1.el5-xen-i686' >> make: *** [default] Error 2 >> >> >> ---------------------------------------- >>> Date: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 23:32:54 -0400 >>> Subject: Re: Ian, Canada CentOS release 5.4 (Final) >>> From: marvin.stodolsky@xxxxxxxxx >>> To: iancbarnett@xxxxxxxxxxx >>> CC: discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >>> >>> Ian, >>> >>> Try the >>> agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106.tar.gz - has the newest Agere/LSI code >>> Additionally there are; >>> automation & testing agrsm-tools-0.0.1-2.noarch.rpm >>> General background agrsm_howto.txt >>> All available at: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/ >>> >>> Marv S >>> >>> On Thu, Apr 22, 2010 at 11:16 PM, Ian Barnett wrote: >>>> >>>> I cannot communicate with my USB modem. >>>> >>>> Which agrsm driver should I use? >>>> >>>> I ran a full update today so I am using the latest kernel but the kernel version numbers match quite old files. >>>> >>>> Thanks, >>>> >>>> Ian >>>> >>>> >>>> Only plain text email is forwarded by the Discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx List Server, >>>> as HTML can contain viruses.
