it looks lite it's a string received from modem, i.e. that the modem
is set to echo. try to set it to non-echo mode by including appropriate
AT command in init string.
then you should see it send:
send(ATE0Z^M)
(I think E0 is the command to turn of echo)
this, of course, might or
I tihnk there is a way to specify what should be returned as

I'd check AT commands reference (should have come with modem) and set it
explicitly in init string

I downloaded debian kernel source package (+ source for alsa modules

I used make-kpkg to build the kernel (and later on alsa and 3dfx
modules). I specified jojda.1 as my kernel revision.
the resulting *.deb (kernel + modules) were succesfully installed, so

I have compiled a kernel with --revision 99:jojda.2
kernel compiled OK, kernal package
kernel-image-2.2.17_jojda.2_i386.deb (why is there no epoch in name?)
I have 3dfx and alsa modules sources so I went on and did:
make-kpkg modules_image (set MODULE_LOC first)

in response to David: you probably need to recompile 3dfx (build a new
package and install it)
what particular problems do you have?
I have just upgraded 2.2.14 to 2.2.17 and recompiled modules (alsa and
3dfx) and everything worked fine. however, I introduced epochs (so that
my kenrel/modules packages are not overwritten by debian ones) and now
