Precise: dgc, hcf, hsf modem drivers

October 13, 2012 — BarryK
Rerwin has compiled dgc, hcf and hsf modem kernel drivers for the 3.2.29 kernel used in Precise Puppy:

I have uploaded these to the 'common' repo (8KB, 472KB, 1MB):
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-common/linux_module_dgcmodem-1.13-20120901-k3.2.29.pet
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-common/linux_module_hcfpcimodem-1.21full-20120927-k3.2.29.pet
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-common/linux_module_hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full-dellhybrid-20120901-k3.2.29.pet

The 3.2.29 Linux kernel PET is also in the 'common' repo, with the intention that other (non-Precise) Puppy builds can also use it. Although, note that it was compiled in Precise Puppy, so any other 3rd party drivers must be also.

I will include these three modules in the next release of precise, even though the hsfmodem PET is big (1MB).
