Subject: Agere 11c11040 module building success - 2.6.25.5!!

Hi all,
I have succeeded in building the 2.1.80
agrmodem/agrserial pair (with
 HDA support) on my computer, and the modules loaded
successfully!
 (However, running 'AgrMdmDaemon' hangs the system.)'
No unresolved
 hda_codec_read/write symbol issues.

Here's what I did:
1. get the file

http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-2.1.80-2mdv2009.0.src.rpm
 from the 11c11040 pit of the linmodems site.

Make sure it's the .src.rpm file.

convert to cpio with 'rpm2cpio
agrsm-2.1.80-2mdv2009.0.src.rpm >
 agrsm-2.1.80-2mdv2009.0.cpio

extract: cpio -i < agrsm-2.1.80-2mdv2009.0.cpio

There are a multitude of patch files included in the
src. RPM. apply
 ALL of them. This fixes the IRQ flags, among other
things. 

If you run make at this stage, then it will fail
because the module
 uses a GPL-only function call - usb_put_dev. There
are various ways to
 bypass this, either by commenting out the line in
question, or my
 unorthodox (and lazy) method of editing the
MODULE_LICENSE line in
 agrsoftmodem.c.

run make module.
The modules built for me on 2.6.25.5 and they load
fine. Dmesg shows
 that the modem is detected. /dev/ttyAGS3 appears.

However, if I try to run the modem daemon
./AgrMdmDaemon, it locks the
 entire system and requires a hard reset.

Hope this helps someone to get it going!

Bjorn.
