I'm trying to install a driver for a pctel hsp56 micromodem modem but every time i try configure it, it says that modversion.h is not present in my kernel. I'm using suse 8.1

ok try compiling
--with-kernel-includes=/usr/src/<kernelversion>/include/

that will solve the problem

If it were only that easy. The compiling program adds /linux to the end of whatever source i give it (i guess i shouldnt have left this info out). Im thinking i shoud scrap this driver and try and find a new one. So if you know where i can find one please tell me

Thanks

downalod the latest version 0.9.6 i guess .. and compile with the previous message's content.. be sure to have the kernel sources installed before compling the driver.. dont comple the kernel..it will be mesed up hope this helps

Hi, I just read this post and i think i ever encountered this problem before.

when i try to install my hsp56 micromodem using pctel-0.9.6, my modversion.h also not present. It is because the location 0f your modversion.h file is different from your linux source file.

maybe you can try to create the symbolic link from your linux source file to the directory of your modversion.h , maybe somewhere on /usr/src/linux.

This method solved my error, although now I have another error and STILL I cant install it. sigh.

well, if you solved your problem, may be you can try to look at my post and give a hint or help.

Good luck
