USB Modem in Fedora - Cant get to work ( post #1)=20
Deep breath....i need another shot of liquer
Modem Model - Netcomm USB 1200 NB Modem
Chipset - Acatel Telecom DynaMiTe=20
Running Fedora
I know these sorts of questions have been posted a few too many times, =
ive searched on google, and in this forum, and on the fedora site, and =
im still stuck at square one.
In the hardware profile thing, it shows my usb modem in the System =
Devices tab (think thats what it was called) but there are about 6 lines =
of just Acatel Telecom DynaMiTe Modem.
I tried using the internet setup "wizard", but it always wants to use my =
ethernet card with i have connected to a hub as a means to connect, =
which wont obviously work
I tried to setup the device in the network manager thing, when i use =
xDSL it just wont detect/respond to any /dev i choose, if i try to add =
anything, it just says inactive, and i cant make it active, my eth0 is =
active though.
I was under the impression usb was /dev/usb/ttyACM0 - 4 etc and ive =
selected those when trying to add a device in the network setup but it =
doesnt respond either
When i boot into linux, the line signal light on my modem is on, and so =
is my data xfer one, which is constantly on as well, although its not =
connected to the net.
In the System Device manager, it does say the driver for my modem is - =
unknown. Do i need to install a driver for it ? Ive searched all over =
for one and read that i do, and read that i dont, because the newer =
kernal would detect it.=20
I dont fully understand what im reading either, new to linux, ive ran an =
old redhat 6 or 7 before, and set up my old dial up modem on it fine, =
and i understand the very basic stuff like mounting cds and floppys, =
just seeing im on dsl now, id like to have a whack at setting up a =
webserver just to learn some new things.
Cant get my head around this dsl modem though..gunna scream..oh =
wait..another shot=20
If anyone can help, or give me a url of a primer of some sort, id very =
much appreciate your response.
Thanks
>From what ive read, my adsl usb modem is using the same chipset as many =
others, and that speedtouch would be able to help me set it up, what =
happens when i follow the install procedure is this
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# dir
anaconda-ks.cfg Desktop install.log install.log.syslog =
speedbundle-1.0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cd speedbundle-1.0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] speedbundle-1.0]# cd speedbundle-1.0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] speedbundle-1.0]# make
./configure
Error: could not find the source for your running kernel in =
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/build/
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] speedbundle-1.0]# make install
./configure
Error: could not find the source for your running kernel in =
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/build/
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1
So from my basic understand, what the above is saying is that i need to =
have the source of the kernal i have, i tried to install the source code =
in fedora from the add/remove programs tab, but when i would go to =
install it, it would say that certain programs had to be installed for =
me to continue, i forget the name of them, but will boot to fedora in =
the morning, rather late now, i know one of the programs started with a =
Y, and the other an N.=20
If anyone has any ideas, id appreciate the help
