Actually, it looks like there is source. There's an src folder in the archive, and it contains source files. The only INSTALL file is one with install instructions, that says - 1) make 2) make install 3) insmod pctel.o 4) insmod ptserial.o And, scanning those with modprobe revealed it doesn't quite work because of .a files, which need to have something done with them. Is here anyone to whom I should send the package to see what to do?
