Hi,

I was trying to install the conexant drivers. While installing, it gives the
following error messages:

This package does not contain pre-built modules suitable for your system:
Distribution: RedHat-7.9
Kernel arch: i586
Kernel version: linux-2.4.2-2

Please obtain the appropriate variant of this package for your system or try the generic RPM or tar version
execution of hsflinmodem-5.03.27lnxtbeta03042700k2.4.20_9-1rh script failed, exit status 1


I was trying to install this
hsflinmodem-5.03.27lnxtbeta03042700k2.4.20_9-1rh.i586.rpm

This is the information about my modem keeping in mind that Rockwell is in fact Conexant
RESULT OF MODEM QUERY =

DEDUCED INFORMATION:

I use the same type drivers for my dell laptop... Your using the wrong driver if you have a 2.4.2-2 kernel.. You should be using:

hsflinmodem-5.03.27lnxtbeta03042700k2.4.2_2-1rh.i586.rpm

uname -m

and

uname -r

to make sure you have the right info...
It will be: /dev/ttySHSF0 and you shouldn't have to run HSFCONFIG. Just set it up thru 'network' after the rpm completes..
