Learned scholars,
I have tried installing LTmodem driver on Linux implementation of Lucent
winmodem on IBM Thinkpad but was reported during the build_module session
that my gcc version is too high (3.3) instead of the required 2.9
Naturally the driver compiling effort failed.
Modem is Lucent Winmodem and is within the range of the driver. Kernel
headers are present.
Kernel is 2.4.22-1.2115.npt 1 Fedora Core 1
Pentium3 600mhz with 386mb RAM..
Modem works on Win98.
Same distro was installed on Athlon 1.2gHz desktop and external Hayes Accura
modem was detected and working.
Thanks.
Below are the error messages

Please first Browse http://linmodems.technion.ac.il
Download http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanModem.gz
Within a Linux partition only:
$ gunzip scanModem.gz
It might be necessary to make executable with:
$ chmod a+x scanModem
before running diagnostics with:
$ ./scanModem
Thinkpads may contain either an Agere soft modem or a Lucent/Agere DSP
modem,
and the ltmodem drivers support Only the DSP modem type.
The scanModem diagnostic will distinguish between the two,
and output other useful information.
If yours is the DSP type there is a matching installer at
http://ltmodem.heby.de
ltmodem-kv_2.4.22_1.2115.nptl-8.26a9-1.i686.rpm
RE: serial-lt-2.4.c: In function `rs_close':
serial-lt-2.4.c:2995: error: invalid operands to binary ==
serial-lt-2.4.c: At top level:
serial-lt-2.4.c:2585: warning: `rs_break' defined but not used
make: *** [serial-lt-2.4.a] Error 1
=======
This is a fedora related failure, I think.
The ltmodem-8.30a2.tar.gz just mounted at http://ltmodem.heby.de should
eliminate it.
BUT, kernel-source must first be prepared followed the
ModemDriverCompiling.txt output from scanModem.
