Maybe you can install an older kernel, for the meantime to give some
time for a fix.

Might be due to some kernel problem* , kernel devel package/kernel
headers, some type of mismatch when I see the errors in the messages
that you have sent us:

</quote>

This line ``*** NO PREDEFINED KERNEL COMPILER IS DETECTED

*** Please make sure that the same compiler version was used for
building kernel.
'' is the one that makes me believe that the running kernel is not the
same gcc as the one in the system.  In this case and in others it is
important that the running kernel and the gcc be the same so that no
errors occurs.  If you can you can confirm

run
$ uname -a
and
$ gcc --version

and that may tell us why things are not working.  To get it working,
the kernel and the gcc must be the same.

If you want and have access to a livecd like
Knoppix/Slax/Porteus/Puppy/..., you can use some of these at least to
get a connection to internet via dialup.  Puppy in many cases has out
of box support for many winmodems.  In porteus I have successfully
built some buildscripts to build a module that will make the modems
work.  Some modems except the hsf/hcf modems since these are
proprietary, except for the 14 kbps one but that one many people would
get mad in the case that it is built(they would want full speed, and
it is a difficult to accomodate to many people*).  One person built
such a module for slax, but I have no status for it as Slax has not
been updated for a while.  Without screwing up your running system
and/or installing again you may try out one livecd(if you can get one)
and try the driver and see if you can make the modem work and connect
via dialup or install a kernel that matches gcc and try the fixes
again.

* unless you have a Dell machine, then you can use the oem drivers and
you can get full speed on the modem.

If you have a cell phone, you may also use it as a modem to connect to
internet.  In ModemData.txt, there is a report you can see :

If a cellphone is not detected, see
http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-878554.html
A sample report is:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg00578.html

Don't get discouraged, a little bit of patience can go a long way.  I
almost forgot, you can also virtualize a version of linux and with an
older kernel you can run an older installation along with your current
one and have a working dialup connection on that one with a working
driver.  These are things you can take a look at.

When there were no fixes for smartlink modem after kernel 2.6.30/31, I
used Slax livecd with older kernel to access the internet and then
later the fixes came along thanks to a person that figured things out.
 You may try to do something similar and not be left without internet
for a fix to come in the meantime.  Hang in there!  You can do it.

Regards,



Antonio
