Re: Compiling the drivers for a ADSL Modem (IceData500)

Compiling the drivers is not that big of a deal.  Your drivers should
have come with a configure file as well as the make file.

Normally what you do first is type ./configure to have Linux check that
all needed components for compilation are ready, and if not, Linux will
tell you what it is missing.  

After the initial ./configure, you can then type "make" to start the
actual compile, which can take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour or
more depending on how many files need to be compiled.  Once that's done,
you need to log in as the root user (by typing "su" and your root
password) and then typing in "make install" to set up the drivers in
their proper place.

Yes, compiling can be scary, but it's not that hard to do if you've got
everything you need.

When you're done with compilation & install, just follow the
instructions for starting your modem.
