-------------------------- System information ---------------------------- CPU=i686, Ubuntu , ALSA_version=1.0.21
Linux version 2.6.32-21-generic (buildd@rothera) (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #32-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 16 08:10:02 UTC 2010
Presently install your Linux Distributions dkms package. It provides for automated driver updates, following upgrade of your kernel. For details see http://linux.dell.com/projects.shtml#dkms
There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe* files
Potentially useful modem drivers now loaded are:
If a USB modem or cellphone is attached and was not detected, please provide available information in your request to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Candidate PCI devices with modem chips are: 04:05.0 Modem: Smart Link Ltd. LM-I56N (rev 02) High Definition Audio cards can host modem chips.
For candidate card in slot 04:05.0, firmware information and bootup diagnostics are:
PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name ---------- --------- --------- -------------- 04:05.0 2003:8800 16ef:2800 Modem: Smart Link Ltd. LM-I56N
Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: 18: 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi uhci_hcd:usb4 --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 04:05.0 ----

[ 0.308929] serial 0000:04:05.0: PCI INT A disabled
The PCI slot 04:05.0 of the modem card may be disabled early in a bootup process, but then enabled later. If modem drivers load
but the modem is not responsive, read DOCs/Bootup.txt about possible fixes.
Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx if help is needed.
=== Finished firmware and bootup diagnostics, next deducing cogent software. ===
Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 04:05.0: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Modem: Smart Link Ltd. LM-I56N " CLASS=0703 PCIDEV=2003:8800 SUBSYS=16ef:2800 IRQ=18 IDENT=slamr
For candidate modem in: 04:05.0 0703 Modem: Smart Link Ltd. LM-I56N Primary device ID: 2003:8800 Support type needed or chipset: slamr
The modem is supported by the Smartlink plus the slmodemd helper utility. Read the
DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.
For 2.6.32-21-generic compiling drivers is necessary. As of October 2007 the current packages at
Writing DOCs/Smartlink.txt ============ end Smartlink section =====================
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.4.3 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.4.3
The patch utility is needed for compiling ALSA drivers, and possibly others.
Minimal compiling resources appear complete: make utility - /usr/bin/make Compiler version 4.4 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.32-21-generic/build
However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files, in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ . For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default. Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions. In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com
or comparable Repository for other Linux distros. When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed.
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available, $ apt-get update $ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel will install needed packages.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition, they can be installed alltogether with: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
To enable dialout without Root permission do: $ su - root (not for Ubuntu) sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd or under Ubuntu related Linuxes sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
For guidance on FAX usage, get from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ get faxing.tar.gz It has samples for a modem using port /dev/ttySL0, which must be changed to match your modem's port.
Read Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0 Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble shooting be necessary.
