2. Compilation, Installation, and Startup
2.1. Prerequisites
A 2.2.16 series (or later) Linux kernel source tree
•
An appropriate set of module utilities
•
gcc version 2.7.x or later
•
If you are building the ACP Modem driver along with the user space application, you need to have a
complete Linux source tree for your kernel, not just an up−to−date kernel image.
2.2. Building and Installing Source
Use tar xzvf
mwavem−yyyymmdd.tar.gz
to unpack the distribution.
1.
Change directories with cd
mwavem−yyyymmdd
2.
Use the ./configure command to configure the build options. Issue ./configure −−help to view all of
the options. The defaults are probably okay though.
NOTE
As of mwavem−1.0.3 you must give ./configure the
−−enable−mwavedd argument in order to build the
driver with the user space application.
3.
Use the make command to build all of the ACP Modem binaries.
NOTE
Your gcc package should be at least at the 2.7.x level. Check your
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes
file for the
minimum version information.
4.
Use make install to install the
mwavem
binary,
mwavem.conf
configuration, the extra binary
(mostly .dsp) files, and module device driver (if you specified that it must be built) and to create the
/dev/modems/mwave
device node.
5.
2.3. Setting Things Up
In the [WORLDTRADE] section of your
mwavem.conf
file, set the Country= parameter to your country
access code.
NOTE
The
mwavem.conf
file is installed in the
/usr/local/etc
directory unless you specified otherwise
during the build process
