Re: winmodem

2002-02-12 Thread Jean Sagi

I don´t know if 2.4 do the trick...

But recently I installed a winmodem on Mandrake 8.1 with kernel 2.4.8.
You need to find the drivers and pray for them to work with your modem.

Chucho!

PD: I installed a PCI modem with PCTEL chipset: PCT789T-C1 following the 
SxS on PCTEL modems.

Kernel sources question (Mandrake 8.1)

2002-02-09 Thread Jean Sagi

Does anyone know where to get the kernel sources on the Mandrake 8.1 cd's?

I used the software manager to find and install them but i cannot find them.
I don´t know if it's some package i have to install, or they just dont 
come in any
of the three cd's.

I read the kernel-howto, but I just says to get linux-x.y.z files from 
some urls
and it follows with the process of recompiling the kernel...

I need them, not to recompile a new kernel. Just need source file 
(headers maybe)
to compile the modules for install a PC-TEL winmodem my uncle has.
I´m following the steps of  Jan Stifter I found on Llama's SxS for 2.4 
kernels and it states
that you have to run ./configure with two parameters:

--with-hal=pct789(Uncle's modem chipset )

--with-kernel-includes=/path/to/my/kernel-sources/include
If you don't have your kernel sources at /usr/src/linux, specifiy
your includes...

That's it idon´t have them!!


Any help would be very appreciated.


Chucho!

Modem suggestion

2001-08-31 Thread Jean Sagi


Does anyone have a suggestion for a new linux modem for desktop use?

What about an us-robotics? (I´ve been told there are a lot of winmodems of this
mark)
What about Haton? (I don´t know how to write it, but is supposed to be good on
linux).

Any help would be appreciated?

Chucho!

PD: A link to a linux-modem web site would be appreciated too.
