Dear folks,
I am having difficulties with martian_modem (getting it to work on
Slackware 13.1 x86_64), I have compiled successfully built
martian_dev.ko under 2.6.33.4 and have compiled and installed 2.6.34
kernel and there too, I have built it:
olivares@darkstar:~$ cat /etc/slackware-version
Slackware 13.1.0
olivares@darkstar:~$ uname -a
Linux darkstar 2.6.34 #1 SMP Mon May 31 05:58:15 CDT 2010 x86_64
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
However the file /usr/sbin/martian_modem is not created under 64 bit
and since it is 32 bit one has to use a prebuilt martian_modem binary.
Marv has kindly made it for me. It has worked before under Fedora
x86_64 , but not with Slackware :(

Here's how I built the driver for 2.6.34

Is there any way I can build martian_modem and use it successfully?
I want to make use of 64 bit power, and not install 32 bit linux.
Thanks in Advance,
Antonio
NOTE:
on Fedora x86_64 systems with Fedora kernels, I used Marv's
martian_modem script he built for me and it worked. Then I got
kernels from kernel.org and ran
$ make all
$ su -c 'make install'
and it worked well. I try to do the same with Slackware and I get errors :(
