US, Ubuntu 7.04 kernel 2.6.20-15-generic
can someone help me? I have a Toshiba satellite a105-s4284, trying to get dialup running on a ubuntu 7.04

For martian_modem, additional required packages are libc6-dev (and for Debian/Ubuntu, linux-libc-dev). The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default. If a driver compilation files with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example. Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list: $ sudo apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel While some of the files may be on the install CD, others may have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com For Ubuntu Feisty, additional packages required were: libc6-dev linux-libc-dev available through http://packages.ubuntu.com/ , if not on the install CD. Such packages may have different names for other Linux distributions. Try installing just the libc6-dev, then test the compile again.

Hi there,
You're off to a good start by using the scanModem tool. By looking carefully into the output, it tells to: 1. Get the driver package: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/pack....gcc4.1.tar.gz 2. Unpack it: tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz (get to your directory first) 3. Run: sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa hw:0,6 (where YOUR_COUNTRY is the country name - not number - listed in CountryList.txt in the unpacked directory) 4. Read Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for guidance. It should be fine - but read files in the unpacked directory before you begin - as the output from scanModem could be wrong. If it doesn't work, you can come back to ask, or send a email to linmodems.org. Remember - Winmodems are (and never will be) real modems, and so support for these won't come easy on Linux systems. manhinli |
Thanks. I'll look into it, and if I have any problems, Ill post.

If you need assistance, there is a link at the top of the ModemData.txt file where you can send the document to the linmodems maintainers via email, whom are extremely knowledgeable in this area.
