Any insights ?

Linux HSF softmodem drivers, version 4.06.06.02
No pre-built HSF modules are available for your exact kernel:
Linux-2.4.29-i686-unknown-unknown-MODVERS
Assuming that a C compiler and proper kernel header files are present
on your system, we will now attempt to re-compile the modules.
Where is the directory of C header files that match your running kernel?
[/usr/src/linux]

WARNING: missing file /usr/src/linux/include/linux/autoconf.h
The cause of this problem is usually a missing or misconfigured
kernel source tree (and sometimes an incorrect directory or symbolic link).
First, ensure that the proper kernel source and compiler packages
from your distribution vendor and/or the community are installed.
The Linux kernel can then be reconfigured by running "make menuconfig"
under the kernel source directory (usually /usr/src/linux).
Verify that the proper options for your system are selected,
and that CONFIG_SMP ("Symmetric multi-processing support" under
"Processor type and features") is disabled, as this driver is
presently designed to work on single-processor machines.
Then compile and install your new kernel (for more information about
this procedure, see the README file under the kernel source directory),
reboot the system using the new kernel, and re-run "hsfconfig".

If you answer yes to the following questions and everything is detected you wouldn't need to enter anything. Sometimes it don't go that smoothly and you end up having to enter them any way --that's why I recommend answering no.sling-shot wrote: One more thing soon as i started the config a blue screen showed me "14f1" and "2f00" and asked me to remember these and enter them later when asked but i was never asked for it!
Since the modem is dialing the drivers are probably working. See here for futher instructions http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.php?p=11857#11857sling-shot wrote: Now to GkDial...
I setup an account and dial... i can hear the modem dialing but finally just disconnected...
Even these questions did not pop up...!!!jcoder24 wrote: If you answer yes to the following questions and everything is detected you wouldn't need to enter anything. Sometimes it don't go that smoothly and you end up having to enter them any way --that's why I recommend answering no.
Should we attempt to automatically configure your hardware? [yes]
Is the modem presently installed in your system? [yes]
Ok, I just remembered that I had put in a check for the file '/etc/hsf/config'. If the file exists it skips the configuration. You prob. had one from the MU package installation. Try removing all of the files installed by both MU and my packages, reinstall and try again.sling-shot wrote:Even these questions did not pop up...!!!
By clean install do you mean with a new pup00X file? If not try a new pup00X file and reinstall.sling-shot wrote:Even a clean install failed.
Now where do i find those log files which i can post?

edit /etc/wvdial.conf
uncomment (delete the semicolon at the beginning of the line) the phone, username and password lines and enter your ISP dialup number, your username and your password respectively.
note the time and then run wvdial
this should allow you to see what errors are showing up.
if it still fails to dial your isp check the lines of /var/log/messages for anything after the time you start wvdial and attach it to your next post. There may also be a /etc/ppp/connect-errors, you can attach that as well.
Exactly. WvDial threw up something like Telephone number not correct or so. I am in India. Is it because the keyboard i selected is US and it thinks it is USA or something like that....?jcoder24 wrote:By clean install do you mean with a new pup00X file?
