Re: [hylafax-users] can't detect modem

Hi Maya,

 

The only people that can help you to get your modem installed and working are the user groups at linmodems.org - this mail list (hylafax-users@xxxxxxxxxxx) is for HylaFAX related issues.

 

Please be aware however, that even if you get your modem installed and working it will be of little use with HylaFAX... software modems like the one in your laptop offer very poor support for fax.

 

Regards

Subject: [hylafax-users] can't detect modem

Haii Alll..
i tried to configure hylafax in laptop.. but modem 
can't detect.. i go thru the site linmodems.org and 
https://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/index.php.. 

.... /proc/pci 
shows....
modem: PCI Device 8086:266d(Intel Corp.)

i also go thru 
http://www.conexant.com/
in https://www.linuxant.com this site they provide 
drivers.. i download and install hcfpcimodem_1.10full_i386.deb this debian 
package.. afterthat using 'hcfpciconfig' command, then it shows an error 
like.........

.........No pre-built  modules for :Debian-3.1 
linux-2.4.27-2-386 i686
trying to automatically build the driver 
modules..
(this requires a C compiler and proper kernel sources to be 
installed)
where is the linux source build directory that matches your 
running kernel?[/lib/modules/2,4,27-2-386/build]


then i just press 
enter then it shows some errors... 
and last 
......however, proper 
/boot/confi-2.4.27-2-386 was found.
would you like to try using it(in a 
temprary kernel tree)? [yes]
 i just press enter.. then it shows
.. 
unable to prepare temporary kernel tree..
the linux kernel can be 
reconfigured by running "make menuconfig" under the kernel source 
directory(/usr/src/linux)..
then compile and install your new kernel ..then 
reboot the system and ewrun the "hcfpciconfig"

i checked the /usr/src.. 
but the linux dir was not found..

i installed the kernel-2.4.27-2-386 by 
using apt.. 
how i can recompile this?..
pls help..


thanks in 
advance 
maya
