Hi there, welcome to LQ!
I don't want to rain on your parade, but there's not usually much good news to be had with these software Winmodems.
The first thing I see is this:
Quote:
WARNING: could not find /home/modem/driver/pctel-0.9.7-9-rht-11/src/.binary.a.cmd
|
Last time I encountered this while building a modem driver, the workaround for it was very horrendous - I'll point you to a link in a moment (which probably will not help you, but you may like to read it anyway).
Second thing I see:
Quote:
linmodem: version magic '2.6.19-1.2798.fc6 SMP mod_unload 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-4.1'
should be '2.6.19-1.2798.fc6 SMP mod_unload 586 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-4.1'

Wrong vermagic version (architecture difference, 586 vs 686). I don't know what the implication of this is, or how to work around that. Are you as sure as you can be, that you have downloaded exactly the correct driver? Maybe provide us the link to where you got it, someone may be able to suggest if it is the best version, or if another might work better.
Third thing:
Are you really using Fedora
Core 4? That's pretty old. Normally I'd suggest trying something newer, but in the case of these rotten modem drivers, a newer OS is usually not helpful, because the modem driver development often lags behind OS and kernel advancement by a significant amount. However, if you continue to have troubles installing software and/or drivers, please consider a more modern distribution - you may have better success (except with modem drivers).
Fourth thing:
Believe it or not, you might have better success connecting to the internet using a microwave oven, than that modem. I have the exact same modem and have
never made it work, on kernels ranging from 2.4.33* up to around 2.6.something. I had it *almost* working at one point, but it never did work. These software modems are garbage, generally, designed for Windows, and often only work on Windows.. If you can get a hardware modem, or a USB modem, you might have better luck, but no guarantee. One modem I do have that works (last I checked), is an Intel 536EP PCI modem. Of almost half a dozen of these crap modems I have, only that one has ever worked.
So, earlier I mentioned a thread, about the "WARNING: could not find..." message above.
The thread is here, and it just details my experiences with my Intel modem, and building and hacking at the driver to make it work when it didn't want to. It also talks a little bit about these "WinModems" in general.
Best of luck!
