Struggling a little with getting my Lucent Agere winmodem up and running

Always get a serial modem. I say ALWAYS GET A SERIAL MODEM. It doesn't
make much messing around and frustration to equal the extra expense of a
UART and some trivial DSP.
Looked for the appropriate binary for a driver on
http://ltmodem.heby.de/ but couldn't see it. Yep, I guess I could
compile from source.
However, saw ubuntu-ltmodem-2.6.10-5-386_8.31a13_i386.deb listed on
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/ which seems
a reasonable match with my kernel version, etc. However, I can't for the
life of me find one of the package dependencies - kernel-kbuild-3.6
doesn't seem to be in the ubuntu repositories. However over in debian
land...
