General Support - Kano64: dist-upgrad "broke" SmartLink slmodemd tischke - 06.09.2006, 01:21 Uhr Titel: Kano64: dist-upgrad "broke" SmartLink slmodemd
[moving this from the "Hardware" Forum]
Kanotix-64 on a Lifbook A3040 (Turion) laptop.
Something went wrong (did not see what) in a dist-ugrade (Friday).
My laptop's smart-link modem use to work, but now:
trm:$ uname -r
2.6.17.11-slh64-smp-1
trm:$ which slmodemd
/usr/sbin/slmodemd
trm:$ ldd /usr/sbin/slmodemd
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libasound.so.2 => not found
libc.so.6 => /lib32/libc.so.6 (0xf7e33000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf7f72000)
slmodemd
./slmodemd: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Any idea how to fix slmodemd.... where can I find sl-modem-daemon ?
I suspect I need both the 32bit and 64bit versions of the ALSA libs but
how do I do that and how do I set-up slmodemd to get the correct library?
Thanks,
tischke

dont know about 64bit.. is SmartLink a modem?
its been said if a fixed IP address::
/etc/init.d/networking restart
and been said if DHCP::
netcardconfig
or
/etc/init.d/networking restart
as for the libsound stuff ,, i have no idea

Do I need to set-up a chroot!? That would not explained how slmodemd worked before the dist-upgrade.... Any body knows how to get an english language version of: (I have had troubles with other chroot instructions)
How could this resolve the modem driver shared library (ALSA) issue ?

I am going to switch back to last month's dist-upgrade level..... I still would like to understand what happened.

umm first ,, i am not up with 64 bit,, nor these types of modems,
I did a google for "slmodemd" and came up with the usual rubbish,, however this may give you a starting point
yes it is redhat and you need to watch it as its rpm not "debian" and rpm modules in debian is not a good look,, whats more important are the ideas and how it relates to you
As a thought .. what about doing an apt-cache policy maybe it got upgraded and it couldnt handle it,, ,, maybe you need to roll back to an earlier version

Thank you for the reply. All I can figure out is that the dist-upgrade must have removed the 32bit ALSA libraries from the /emul /usr/lib directory. I just put it back in there (soft linked from a 32bit chroot) and that solves the dependency issue. Now I am left with other errors....
