Please see my comment on this
(http://lists.opensuse.org/archive/opensuse/2005-Oct/2409.html). You
should simply use the kernel-default-nongpl package that's in the
inst-source-extra on ftp.suse.com - this package ships the slamr.ko, so
there is no need to compile it from source.
Ok... this is a solution !!! But, if you open Yast for configuring a
smartlink-softmodem, then Yast downloads and installs automatically the
package km_smartlink-softmodem... but after that the modem doesn't works
because the package km_smartlink-softmodem has errors in the Makefile
and Yast can't creates the module slamr.ko !!!
Then... or the bug is in Yast (it should tell... "download nonGPL
version of kernel") or is in the km_smartlink-softmodem!!!
I think that every person that know nothing about kernel, module,
packages and so on, should be able to install smartlink modems by
Yast!!!! So, somethings goes wrong... if I can't install my modem by
Yast!! is it right????
I don't know the Novell policies about nonGPL packages (as
smartlink-softmodem)... so, I don't know if my problem arise because I
installed a nonGPL package in the GPL version of Suse (openSUSE)... but
again... Yast have to tell me (if openSUSE goal is to create a friendly
OS)!!!
