Hi there,

in the archives I saw that some of you seem to have the same problems as I
had, I couldn't compile the pctel-0.9.4 package with gcc 3.2 on gentoo.
Errormessage was also
<command line>:1:13: multi-line string literals are deprecated

The reason for this is that gcc 3.2 gives a three line answer with version
information on 'gcc --version' instead of only "3.2", like it is expected
by the Makefile and like it was with earlier versions.
The ugly fix I used was to edit line 93 of the Makefile in src/ptserial
and replace GCC_VERSION = gcc --version with GCC_VERSION = 3.2.
The compilation works now, modules are loadable, and the modem worked at
least once with minicom. I was unsuccessful with wvdial though, wvdial
timeouts before I get a connection, the connectionprocess seems to be
much slower than in windows.

Hope I could help, and if anyone has ideas regarding the timeout-issue
with wvdial, please tell me.
To reply please also answer to my emailadress, since right now I'm not
subscribed to this list.

Greetings,
Holger
