The AGRSM code package is not yet functionally on x86_64 systems, except in Intelarchitectureemulation mode. This is because there is a 32 bit encypted component, precompiled at LSI/AgereInc. It cannot be functionally linked with other 64 bit components compiled on a x86_64 system.When/if LSI Inc. provides the encypted component in 64 bit format, service will be possible.

-------------- end Agere Systems section -------------------

Completed candidate modem analyses.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev

Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.3.2and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.3.2

Minimal compiling resources appear complete:

make utility - /usr/bin/makeCompiler version 4.3linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/build

However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files,in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ .For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also required headers of  package libc6 are commonly installed by default.Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels2.6.24 and later versions.In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com

or comparable Repository for other Linux distros.When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed.

Compressed files at: /usr/src/et131x.tar.bz2

If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), thenSome additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-devand any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev

If an alternate ethernet connection is available,$ apt-get update$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-develwill install needed packages.For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
