Hello
i compiled fine the ltmodem 8.31a7 drivers with my 2.4.26 kernel
but with the 2.6.9 i have this prob:

To avoid faulting Systems with an Enviromental setting: make -e
make
is the compiling command used with build_module.
To modify "make" invocation on your System, if desirable,
edit the build_module line below: MAKEE

Checking for driver products:

Compilation of lt_modem.ko failed,
Do assess whether your utilities are up to date as listed within 1ST-READ!

May i have to isntall other drivers? Are they support 2.6x kernels?
Thanks in advance

Hello!
I installed FC3 with kernel 2.6.9 on my acer laptop and had same problem with the ltmodem.

I successfully installed my softmodem by downloading the ltmodem-8.31a10.tar.gz source file archive from http://www.heby.de/ltmodem.
It is very simple to compile and it worked out at first try for me.
You have just to run some scripts:
./scanmodem #to check if modem is known
./build_module
./ltinst2
./autoload


Hope to be helpfull

Good luck!

I managed to dial with my modem and thank you for the link but the problem didn't solved.
As root:
i dial and when its ready to connect the dial dies and reconnect without any msg.
I use kppp. The debug script is:
ATZ
OK
ATM1L1
OK
ATD <PHONE NUMBER>
OK

... reconnects!

As user:
The modem dials and then no weird noises is hearing.You know this noises you hear when u getting connect.
After many seconds i take the message: NO CARRIER
I think i miss the configuration

I think I'm not able to help you in your trouble....
Sorry, I'm a just entered into linux world... ;o)
I told all that I knew...
Be patient, you will soon find a solution!

I downloaded an ltmodem package for the 2.6 kernel series from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/pack...dem/kernel-2.6. It works flawlessly!

Good luck!
