SLModem driver

Hi! I try to install slmodem driver, but fail. I recompiled this driver for my kernel(2.6.11-mm2) he wont load, dmesg say:

slamr: Unknown symbol get_device
slamr: Unknown symbol put_device
slamr: Unknown symbol device_release_driver

That's wrong?
PS: I have configured alsa module snd_i8x0m.
PPS: I also tried driver version 2.9.9b - same results.

Re: SLModem driver

I found in google, that it is problem of kernel - something with GPL. And only way to load this drivers is to replace MODULE_LICENSE  "Smart Link Ltd." to MODULE_LICENSE "GPL" in drivers/amrmo_init.c and drivers/st7554.c.
It is truth?

Re: SLModem driver

Why did you compile the driver yourself? It happens to be available as Pacman package "slmodem" (http://www.archlinux.org/packages.php?id=5427).

Haven't tried it myself, but looks like what you need?

Edit: I just realized that you are using an mm-Kernel, so this forces you to recompile?

Re: SLModem driver

Yes, i recompile this driver becouse i use mm kernel. Now driver can load, but no one dial program cant see the modem, although driver create a new ttySL0 device. I try to use wiki, but it didnt help.

Re: SLModem driver

Does /dev/modem exist ? And does it points to /dev/ttySL0 ?

Re: SLModem driver

Have you tried kppp? It's the only one that works for me. It seems that I can't get the other ones to work. I use the ltmodem.

Re: SLModem driver

slmodem has been like this since 2.6.9, at least. I have tried 2.6.11.3 which is what the latest build is for. Same result. I have tried both the arch pkg, and building it myself. It looks like the string is the thing. The latest I know that it definately works for is 2.6.7 and pon and poff both work in that case. It is unstable when you change video modes, from text to X or X to text. HTH.

Re: SLModem driver

Guess what? Changing the string fixes those errors, but then it scans for a modem and finds my VIA3058, which is what we want, and that is the last we hear from the module. pffftt. goodbye. There has to be something else wrong, this loads and works in a standard arch 2.6.7 kernel. Currently I am trying to load slamr in 2.6.10-3, 2.6.11.3 is a bit of a headache so I will give that a miss. Perhaps 2.6.99 will be stable. :?
