Modem won't connect

Well, I got the make command to work finally, but it looks like something went wrong. Here's a log of what happened:

Code:

cd coredrv; make clean

The modem still doesn't work, and it just doesn't look right, does it?

Another possible solution:

I had to "dumb down" my modem, since it was not running in "stupid mode" (honestly! that's what they call it

). That just means changing the parameter in the modem configuration file like

Code:

stupid mode yes

I did it with Yast -> Internet -> Modem -> change (selected modem) -> next -> check in the tick box -> stupid mode on -> Finish...

Should be easier than compiling

.

Okay... I'll try stupid mode next.
