Hi Sayamindu
http://modems.dewback.cl/, in the pctel section, the site is under
reconstruction, so any comment about how ugly and disfunctional is it keep
it to yourself until you see te new one :), just kidding.

Re: PCTEL - problems kernel >=2.4.0

so i have a similar problem with the 0.8.6 driver and 2.4.19-pre1-ac1
kernel, i fix this problen in a very ugly but eficient way :), i edit the
configure script by adding some few lines to the check part, so if you see
this at the configure file, at the 2590 line i think:

  k_version="`echo $real_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)/\1/'`"
  k_patch="`echo $real_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)/\2/'`"
  k_sub="`echo $real_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)/\3/'`"

  v_min="`echo $min_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)/\1/'`"
  p_min="`echo $min_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)/\2/'`"
  s_min="`echo $min_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)/\3/'`"

add the following parameters to the check, \([a-zA-Z0-9]*\), to the 6
lines, and you see something like this :)

  k_version="`echo $real_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)\([a-zA-Z0-9]*\)/\1/'`"
  k_patch="`echo $real_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)\([a-zA-Z0-9]*\)/\2/'`"
  k_sub="`echo $real_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)\([a-zA-Z0-9]*\)/\3/'`"

  v_min="`echo $min_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)\([a-zA-Z0-9]*\)/\1/'`"
  p_min="`echo $min_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)\([a-zA-Z0-9]*\)/\2/'`"
  s_min="`echo $min_kernel_version | sed 's/\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\).\([0-9]*\)\([a-zA-Z0-9]*\)/\3/'`"

If this solve your problem at the 2.4.0 kernel check, probably you must do
the same to the 2.4.7 kernel version check, this check begin at the line
