ADSL Bewan PCIst install

huwnet · 08-17-2007, 06:32 AM

I've got a BeWan ADSL PCIst modem which I'm trying to install in Debian Etch. The driver consists of a binary blob and a GPL kernel wrapper. I'm using kernel version 2.6.18-4-686

The output from lspci is:

Code:

00:08.0 ATM network controller: STMicroelectronics ST70137 [Unicorn] ADSL DMT Transceiver (rev 10)

I first tried using the unicorn and unicorn-source packages from the non-free repository. The README.debian documents two methods for compiling.

Quote:

- Using the make-kpkg(1) command provided by the kernel-package Debian
package. This will produce a corresponding unicorn-modules package for
the Debian kernel-image package that you are using. This is "the Debian
way". See the "modules_image" section of the make-kpkg(1) man page.
Notice that you have to be root to build the unicorn-modules, i don't know
why this is, fakeroot is not enough, but sudo will do the trick.

- Changing to the /usr/src/modules/unicorn/ directory and building as
the README file instructs using "make; make install". This will build
and install a module specific to the system you are building on and is
not under control of the packaging system.

I tried the two methods above and installing with module_assistant.

The output from make was:

Code:

for i in adsl_status unicorntest tools ; do make -C $i all ; done
make: *** adsl_status: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: *** unicorntest: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: *** tools: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: *** [applis] Error 2

It looks like the makefile hasn't been modified after the Debian maintainer split the package into unicorn and unicorn source.

The build log from module-assistant was:

I then tried downloading directly from Bewan's site. They provide a version slightly newer than the one in the Debian repos.

I was hopeful that this *might* work as the changelog said:

Code:

- Now works for kernel 2.6.14 and newer (skb_unlink parameter change)

The output from make this time was almost the same as last time.

The readme and this page suggested building the modules individually. I tried compiling libm first and then unicorn_pci.

libm compiled fine but unicorn_pci had many errors like this:

Code:

/usr/src/unicorn/unicorn_pci/unicorn_pcidrv.c:2160: error: expected â)â before string constant

A search on Google showed that this was probably due to a kernel change. I found a patch used by Gentoo.

The patched fixed the previous errors and now I get this:

Code:

make CC=gcc -C /usr/src/linux SUBDIRS=/usr/src/unicorn/unicorn_pci modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.18-4-686'

Any help would be much appreciated

I fixed most of the errors by using some patches (from Gentoo) and installing a missing gtk1.2 dependency.

Now I'm just stuck with these errors:

Compiled some stuff manually and now everything is working

linuxquestions@voila · 09-12-2007, 02:05 PM

Hi,

Could you explain what you mean by "compiled some stuff manually". I'm stuck with the same last error about "no rule to make target". I think the problem is the msw.cpp file and not a .c file.

Thanks.

huwnet · 09-12-2007, 02:08 PM

Sure. In my previous message I said I compiled some stuff manually by copying some commands from the makefile. However while this compiled it didn't actually run :P.

Renaming the .cpp files as .c seemed to fix the problem (I'm not entirely sure why not everyone has to do this to get it to work. Possibly a Debian bug or something I did wrong).

I also wrote some instructions here http://huw.org.uk/pages/misc/bewan-adsl-pcist.php

Hope this helps
