Dear friends,
I have received the request below and translated it into English,
calling for your help.
I have not yet digested this new scanModem output format, and I do not
find in it a clear cut answer to the following questions:
-is there an Intel 536EP chipset in the computer?
-if true indeed, which would match the announced Dynamode M56PCI H-I
Modem because the I in H-I is Dynamode's way to flag Intel chipset
(alternate is R for Rockwell-Conexant), why doesn't scanModem direct the
user to Philippe's driver? Kernel 2.6.35 too recent under Ubuntu?
-is there a second or alternate ATI chipset based modem?
-if true indeed, depending on the chip model this may need slmodem or a
Linuxant driver, but again I found scanModem mute on the subject. The
list of drivers preloaded by Ubuntu is not of great help.
Thanks, in Aran's name too, not only mine.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.4.5
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.4.5
linux-headers-2.6.35-24-generic-pae resources needed for compiling are
not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
linux-headers-2.6.35-24-generic-pae
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

It has samples for a modem using port /dev/ttySL0, which must be changed
to match your modem's port.
Read Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0

Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble
