Saludos,
Tengo un computarod dell dimension 4600, instalé suse
9.0 y reconocio el modem un BCM v92 (de Broadcom).
Cuando fui a configurar la conexión de internet
resulta que no funciona. Buscando en diversos foros
encontré lo siguiente:
Hi If you are visiting this tread its maybe because
you have been all around the net trying to find
answers to your problem installing a BCM V.90 56k
Modem. I hope this helps you and also hope some reply
wheter it works for you or not.
1.-The very First thing you have to do is to install
your kernel Sources provided in your 3rd. CD. Or
download it from the net and then install it. You can
find what your Kernel version is by typing uname -r in
the terminal window.
2.-Once the Kernel Sources instaled download the file
from the link
http://www.cacs.louisiana.edu/~cxg9789/BCMSM/BCMSM-3.4.19-6.src.rpm
.
This driver is for RedHat 7.2/7.3 so we need to make
the rpm for our kernel version.
3.- Open a terminal window, type su and when asked for
password type de root password of your system. Move to
the directory were you saved the uncompressed files
and type rpmbuild --rebuild BCMSM-3.4.19-6.src.rpm
(Don't worry about the error messages at this step ).
4.- Move to /usr/src/RPM/SPECS (cd
/usr/src/RPM/SPECS), type chmod 666 BCMSM-3.4.19.spec
this is to change the permissions of the file allowing
us to modify it.
5.-Open the spec file BCMSM-3.4.19.spec with any text
editor i used Kwrite, and replace all the references
to 2.4.18-27.8.0 with your kernel version, in mi case
it was 2.4.21-0.13mdk (The resulting of uname -r),
then save the spec file with the changes you made
(There must be 6 replaces).
6.- Make sure the symbolic link /dev/modem doesn't
exist (ls -l /dev/modem), if it exists remove it by
typing rm /dev/modem and answer yes when asked to
remove. (This worked for me, i only had my BCM modem
attached to my computer, if you have another modem be
carefull.)
7.-Type rpmbuild -bb --target i686 BCMSM-3.4.19.spec
while you are at /usr/src/RPM/SPECS. If all goes fine
by now you must have the fileBCMSM-3.4.19-6.i686.rpm
in the path /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i686 (ls -l
/usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i686)
8.- Move to /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i686 and type rpm -ivh
--replacepkgs BCMSM-3.4.19-6.i686.rpm, you will get
something like this:
Preparing...
########################################### [100%]
1:BCMSM ###########################################
[100%]
...thats it.
type ls -l /dev/modem and you have to see something
like this lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 11 sep 8 17:47
/dev/modem -> /dev/ttySM0. If you have it but it is
backgrounded in red there must be a problem. In my
system /dev/modem appears colored in light blue and
/dev/ttySM0 in yellow. Now use kppp to setup your
internet connection and thats it.
Again, I hope this helps you but i assume no
responsability of anything taht could go wrong with
your system, i repeat this worked for me but its not
for sure it will work for you. I am posting this
because it has been quite frustating having so many
questions and no body answering them and want to share
the little bit i learned the hard way from here and
there. by the time i posted this my tread was visited
40 times and no replys from no body. If you find
something wrong in this tutorial let me know.
Intente ahcer lo mismo pero no me funciono en
suse.obviamente que tuve en cuenta que en suse algunas
cosas son distintas. En mandrake 9.1 que lo tengo
instalado tambien si me funciono.
¿Puede alguien ayudarme a recompilar correctamente el
archivo .src.rpm? gracias
