| 178894 | 2003-09-29 06:33:00 | I am trying to get a Linux driver installed for my modem which is a PCTel HSP micromodem 56. I was directed to : www.medres.ch/~jstifter/pctel/pctel-0.9.7.html for the latest version of a driver for this modem. I unpacked the file and entered: ./configure –auto in accordance with the instructions. I got error messages as shown in the following log : ./configure -auto checking for running kernel version...2.4.19 checking for ptserial...ptserial-2.4.7.c checking for gcc...3.2 searching for kernel includes...found at /usr/src/linux/include checking for modversions.h.../usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h checking for kernel_version...In file included from t.c:2: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h:1:28: linux/rhconfig.h: No such file or directory ./configure: line 1: ./t: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `./t': No such file or directory ** error could not determine a proper UTS_RELEASE I sent all this 3 weeks ago to the creator of this package - Jan Stifter at: j.stifter@medres.ch but haven’t had any reply so far. Would anyone else have any idea on how to get rid of the errors ? I am using Mandrake 9.0 |

| 178896 | 2003-09-29 09:42:00 | Yes - I found out that was necessary before & have installed it. | unsavvy (4648) | ||
| 178897 | 2003-09-29 12:21:00 | I am working on installing the same driver for my winmodem but I'm on redhat 9.0 so you're not alone. I'll tell ya if I make any breakthroughs. | smashedlittlebugger (4397) | ||
| 178898 | 2003-09-29 15:06:00 | There are usually rpm's available for RH and MDK for most WinModems now! | Chilling_Silently (228) | ||
