Linman,

Thanks for a very helpful tutorial for we nubees with BCM v.92 modems!

I had excellent success with it until I got to the last step.

Basically my error messages are incorrect arguments on the mknod
command AND it can't find the ttySMconfig file in /dev.

I can create a ttySMconfig file, perhaps, but I need to know what's in it.
I'm not sure why the mknod command failed, but maybe it's related to the
missing config file..

Getting this close to getting my modem up/running is terrific, but I've got to
give this some thought and figure it out. Lin/Unix is a bit more tedious than
I remember from many years ago.

Do you/anyone have any suggestions, or corrective actions I can take?

Where does the ttySMconfig file come from?

Here are the last few lines showing my errors:

[root@localhost SPECS]# ls -l /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i686

Thanks for any help you, or others, can provide.

I'm so close I can taste success!

Al

BTW, I'm doing this with 2.4.22-10mdk kernel, which I installed yesterday.

hi al_chemyst

As you used 2.4.22-10mdk could you let me know the output of the command 'mknod --version', just in case.
This is mine:
[root@localhost dev]# mknod --version
mknod (coreutils) 4.5.7

I also found the file /usr/src/RPM/BUILD/BCMSM-3.4.19/BCMSM-init-redhat, there - i think - is were the ttySMconfig is generated and sending you the errors you posted.

here:
line
47 suffix="config"
48 devname=$1"_"$suffix
49 major=`egrep "$devname$" /proc/devices | sed 's/\([0-9]*\) .*/\1/'`
50 minor=0
51 devnode=/dev/ttySM$suffix
52 if [ -e $devnode ]; then
53 rm -f $devnode
54 fi
55 if [ $create = "1" ]; then
56 mknod $devnode c $major $minor
57 chmod 666 $devnode
58 fi

Also please let me know wich of this files you have in your /dev directory

this is what i found:
[root@localhost dev]# ll ttySM*
crw-r----- 1 administrador tty 254, 0 nov 9 17:31 ttySM0
crw-rw---- 1 administrador tty 253, 0 nov 9 16:53 ttySMaudio0
crw-rw---- 1 administrador tty 250, 0 nov 9 16:53 ttySMconfig
crw-rw---- 1 administrador tty 251, 0 nov 9 16:53 ttySMlog0
crw-rw---- 1 administrador tty 252, 0 nov 9 16:53 ttySMstatus0

The driver if you downloaded the one from the link i posted at the begining is suposed to be kernel independent so it should work in your version.

Thanks linman!

I'll get this info and get back to you.

Al

I also noticed that BCMSM shows up in the MCC screen that manages services, at the top of the list.

I think the LastRPMBuildInfo could be have interesting data in it!

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Well, it finally works for me.
The problem was effectively due to kernel-source.
And I think I am not the only one having this sort of pb.
When you are new to linux and you have just installed linux with a recent distribution like Mandrake 9.1, you could think that kernel-source, rpm-build... packages are already installed, but it is not always the case.
So I add some informations to linman procedure.

KERNEL-SOURCE INSTALLATION:
As specified by linman, to be sure to have kernel source installed you must have a symbolic link "/usr/src/linux" pointing to your sources for the apropiate kernel version.
For example, for my version (2.4.21-0.13mdk, result of 'uname -r'), ls -l /usr/src/linux gives me this symbolic link:
linux -> linux-2.4.21-0.13mdk.
If it is not the case, first type 'rpm -aq | grep kernel-source' and you should have something like this:
kernel-source-2.4.21-0.13mdk
If it is not the case, it means that kernel-source package is not installed.
In this case, you have to get it from your CD or from internet (http://rpmfind.net and search for kernel-source)
Then type 'urpmi kernel-source-2.4.21-0.13mdk.rpm'
It is possible you need other packages to install kernel-source package.
For me, glibc-devel, ncurses-devel and gcc were missing.
In this case, you have to install the missing packages.
Sometimes the package is included in other packages.
For example, I installed libncurses5-devel and it provided me ncurses-devel.
Be carrefull, you could have some problems if you download a too recent version for a package.
For example, for me 'urpmi libncurses5-devel-5.3.1.20030215.1mdk.i586.rpm' works but it did not work with libncurses5-devel-5.3.1.20030215.3mdk.i586.rpm because my kernel -13mdk is to old for this package. Another possibilty is to install a recent kernel (-25 mdk the last one), but if you are new to linux, you could have some problems to compile a new kernel.
For me, with 2.4.21-13mdk, I have installed the following packages:
glibc-devel-2.3.1-10mdk.i586.rpm
libncurses5-devel-5.3.1.20030215.1mdk.i586.rpm
gcc-3.2.2-3mdk.i586.rpm

RPM-BUILD INSTALLATION:
When executing linman procedure, if you got this sort of error:
"bash: rpmbuild: command not found".
Is is probably because rpm-build package is missing.
First check it. 'rpm -aq | grep rpm-build' should give something like this:
rpm-build-4.0.4-28mdk
With 2.4.21-13mdk, you have to download and install the following packages:
rpm-build-4.0.4-28mdk.i586.rpm
gcc-c++-3.2.2-3mdk.i586.rpm
libstdc++5-devel-3.2.2-3mdk

Thank you again Linman for your procedure.

Being a newbie, I was under the impression that the RPM utility
was supposed to determine dependencies and make sure
everything that a package needs is already installed, or install
it with the RPM.

In the old days it was called 'Linking'. Libraries, other utilities, and
any 'outside' the program references were resolved during linking.
If a resource wasn't available you got an error message saying,
"lib yyy missing" or "file access to xyz.db denied"... "Link failed".

So I guess it pays to go through these RPM listings with a fine tooth
comb, unless any errors are also written to a specific error log file.
Of course there are directions to 'ignore' the error messages generated
by this step!

Al

Hi! al_chemyst and linman,
Your conversation was extremely helpful. I am using Redhat 9.0 (kernel 2.4.20-8) on my I5100. I have BCM V.92 56K modem and I trying to compile the modules as recommended by linman. But like al_chemyst I get the error of /dev/ttySMconfig not found.
I don't have any file/directory in /dev by ttySM* name.
How to proceed from here ?
Regards,
Debasis

I hope to be able to check some of the items you noted in your last post tonight.

Here is the last bit of info requested by linman:

========================================================
[root@localhost dev]# ll ttySM*
ls: ttySM*: No such file or directory
[root@localhost dev]#
========================================================

When I did a 'ls' of the /dev directory it DID have three files named ttySM2,
ttySM7 and ttySM9 listed in RED, as is the case with 'modem'. I presume
that the RED indicates that they are inaccessible/unusable and were likely
trashed during creation. Or does RED mean that they are 'hidden' or that
I don't have permissions to them(even as root?)?

It is entirely possible that when I installed MDK 9.2 that I didn't install all
of the necessary libraries, especially since I'm using a workstation setup,
not a networked environment.

With the holiday season approaching my time is limited due to extended work
hours. Fortunately I can still get online using my WinXP partition, and do a
few things as time allows.

Hopefully we can get this working for these newer kernels. I'm surely not
the only one with this problem, and I know we're close to a solution.

Regards,
Al

I spent several hours last night going thru the files in the usr/src/RPM/BUILD/
BCMSM-3.4.19 directory containing the programs that create the modem
interface for BCM modems.

1)The modems referenced in the programs are 4211, 4211SP and 4212
models. My model is the 4214, probably a slightly newer chip/firmware.

2)The PCI/VEN codes are also slightly different. These codes are checked in
one of the routines, and determine some of the set up info for modem access.

3)linman's procedure changed the kernel number in one script, but it is also
used in a second file. I'm not sure if these files are C code or just some kind
of script.

4) The latest update to the driver was in April 2003, according to a comment
line in one of the programs.

5)My library contains the gcc and other libraries that zebra says are needed,
BUT mine are not -devel versions of these libs.

6)I copied some of the relevant code into a couple files, which I can post
here, as I get time. However, they will take up quite a bit of space, so I
hesitate to post them in their entirety.

7)Any one of the 'minor' changes above can cause the install process to fail.
There are directions to 'install' AND 'uninstall' the driver in the notes of one
file. I might uninstall what has already been installed, make a backup copy
of all the original files in the BCMSM-3.4.19 directory, then make my best
guess mods to each program file, then try to reinstall.

8)I'm going to keep working on the code I found, either adding or changing
modem model numbers, PCI/VEN codes, kernel version, etc. to match my
modem and system. It might take a while, since I'll be very busy until New Year.

I'll keep this thread updated as I make progress, if any.

Regards,
Al

Note the refs to 4211 and 4211SP modem types and PCI/VEN codes. One is
for fax/data modems only, the other for voice/data/fax modems. It may be
necessary to add another EEPROM code to match your particular modem.
My EEPROM ID code is PCI/VEN_8086&DEV_24c6&SUBSYS_24c68086.
My modem is Broadcom model BCM94214, per Gateway(parts in MY machine)
My Linux kernel is 2.4.22-10mdk.
Consequently, some mods to this routine may be necessary.

There are 6 refs to 3.4.19. Is this the file in which linman changed the kernel
number?

Registry keys are added depending on the type of modem. The setup string
"BCMSMSetup,1,00,04,20,80" appears to be the same for both modem types.
I'll have to look up what the variables in the setup string mean. Probably
stop bits, parity bits, port number(80), etc. Not sure what the 04 and 20
are for.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Al

Broadcom Linux SoftModem Driver README
Copyright (C) 2000 Broadcom Corporation. All rights reserved.


How to install the modem on RedHat 7.x systems using RPM:

1) Log in as root.
2) Execute the command:
rpm -i BCMSM-3.4.19-1.i386.rpm
Rpm will first copy the Broadcom modem kernel module to the appropiate
/lib/modules/*/misc directory. Rpm will then create a shell script
called /etc/init.d/BCMSM and symbolic links
/etc/rc.d/rc[35].d/S99BCMSM that point to the /etc/init.d/BCMSM
script. Finally, rpm will load the kernel module, create the
appropiate device nodes(called /dev/ttySM*) and create a symbolic link
called /dev/modem which points to the first tty device.

How to remove the modem on RedHat 7.x systems using RPM:

1) Log in as root.
2) Execute the command:
rpm -e BCMSM-3.4.19-1

How to install the modem on a RedHat 5.x/6.x system:

1) Log in as root.
2) Make the directory '/usr/local/lib/BCMDM' and copy the contents of the
archive to this directory.
3) Change to this directory and run 'make'.
4) Still in this directory, run 'make install KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux'.
This command assumes that the Linux sources for the current kernel are
stored in /usr/src/linux. If not, please specify the appropriate
directory here.
5) Run the command '/etc/rc.d/init.d/BCMDM start'

These commands will create the device entry "/dev/ttySM0" for the modem
device. The modem will automatically load from now on when the system boots.

How to remove the modem on a RedHat 5.x/6.x system:

1) Log in as root
2) Run the command '/etc/rc.d/init.d/BCMDM stop'
3) Change to the '/usr/local/lib/BCMDM' directory and run 'make uninstall'.

How to build RedHat 7.x RPM packages:

TARGET : one of the linux softmodem targets(i.e opt-linux-pentium-mmx)
RPM_KERNELS : list of kernel versions to build(i.e "2.4.7-10 2.4.7-smp").
KERNEL_DIR : base directory for kernel header files. The header files for
kernel version xx.yy.zz are assumed to be located on
$(KERNEL_HEADERS_ROOT)xx.yy.zz/include
RPM_BUILD_ARCH : the build architecture used for rpm.
Normally set to i386 in config/config.oem (Note by CG: Doesn't work, fixed at i386).
DEVICE_NAME : the name of the module(i.e BCMSM)
VERSION_NUMBER : modem version number(i.e 3.4.19)
PACKAGE_VERSION : package version number. Normally set to 1 in config/config.oem. Should be
incremented when modem is repackaged and reset to 1 when building a package with a
different modem version number.

Source rpms are built by default. To build binary rpms from top level softmodem dir
execute the following command:

make <TARGET> RPM_KERNELS=<see above> KERNEL_DIR=<see above> [RPM_NAME=<...>] [RPM_BUILD_ARCH=<see above>]
This builds an rpm called
<DEVICE_NAME>-<VERSION_NUMBER>-<PACKAGE_VERSION>.<RPM_BUILD_ARCH>.rpm by default
or <RPM_NAME> if RPM_NAME is redefined. The source rpm is called <DEVICE NAME>-<VERSION NUMBER>-<PACKAGE VERSION>.src.rpm. The binary rpm includes
the modem kernel modules compiled for the kernel versions specified in
RPM_KERNELS.

To build binary rpms using the Makefile in this directory replace <TARGET> with rpm.

Al

Hi guys, next i post the steps of the instalation of the driver on mdk 9.2, it worked with the same procedure i posted before, please dont forget to give feedback on your experience installing the BCM modem driver. Kernel version: 2.4.22-10mdk

Hope this gives some ligth to your install process.
Have fun...

I'll give the MDK 9.2 instructions a try soon.
First, I think I'll 'rpm -e' the previous attempt.

Your work/assistance is greatly appreciated!
