Hi, I installed Knoppix 3.4 in the hard disk. Everything works perfect now, but I can not install the modem. It is an internal PCI modem, for dialup connection. I found the following webpage, that has information for modems similar to mine: http://www.linuxant.com
From this page I downloaded a utility for windows, that it can identify and give relevant information. Then I downloaded the driver: hsfmodem-6.03.00lnxt04061800full_i386.deb
Then in linux as root I tried to install the file with dpkg –i <filename>.deb, but it comes with an error that it says that it needs some kernel headers!!!


Anybody that could help?

The kernel-headers are on the cd, but you have to install them.
I don't know the exact location.
search 'knoppix kernelheaders' could help, couldn't it?
