Thanks Antonio. I will take a look at this when I get chance and
incorporate some kind of fix based on this in a new build. The errors
look like the format to a printf not matching the argument sizes, so
maybe the size of the things being printed have changed in the kernel.
Best regards,
Robert

Dear folks, Robert& Marv,
I don't have a dialup connection anymore, but I try to maintain some
scripts that will generate a working driver formerly for slax and now
for porteus live cd. I had a build script that generated the module
(a working package that is inserted on the fly and modem would be
accessible and working). In the newer kernels, the driver was not
compiling.

However, by making some changes, the compilation goes through and the
driver is compiled:
Line 89 in original source
from
static DECLARE_MUTEX(linmodem_sem);
to
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE< KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,37)
static DECLARE_MUTEX(linmodem_sem);
#else
static DEFINE_SEMAPHORE(linmodem_sem);
#endif
Line 1204 or so add:
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE< KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,37)
static DECLARE_MUTEX(serial_sem);
#else
static DEFINE_SEMAPHORE(serial_sem);
#endif
I will try to write a script with sed that fixes this so I could patch
up a build script for porteus:
http://www.forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=37&sid=83038aa01e399928c2a6e5b99bb96eb8
I was looking for a fix and I saw the fix applied in this page:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=602367
Hope to fix it so that users that need a working module for porteus
are not left in the dark.
Regards,
Antonio
