HSFmodem: hsf driver package is for i386 [SOLVED]

[Efo]

Hi guys,

I just updated the kernel and now my "ALi Corporation M5457 AC'97 Modem Controller" doesnt work anymore. When I run HSFconfig I get an error when it is building the modules.

_______________________________________________________________
No pre-built modules for: unknown-unknown linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r7 i686

Trying to automatically build the driver modules...
(this requires a C compiler and proper kernel sources to be installed)

Where is the linux source build directory that matches your running kernel?
[/lib/modules/2.6.16-gentoo-r7/build]

Building modules for kernel 2.6.16-gentoo-r7, using source directory
/lib/modules/2.6.16-gentoo-r7/build. Please wait...

ERROR: Module build failed!

The hsfconfig-buildlog.txt gives me

It looks like it would build for i386 and not i686, does anyone knows a way around this?

Before it used to work but I think it may have been built the modules on the architecture i386-pc-linux-gnu. Is there a way I can build the modules using i386 and then integrate them in i686?

thanks

I went to www.linuxant.com and they have a nice installer (cnxtinstall.run).
That did the trick.

thanks,
