Installation Overview
This procedure applies to Linux 2.6 kernel versions 2.6.8 through 2.6.10.
These tgz and source RPM packages (ti_usb_2.6‐1.2.tgz and ti_usb_2.6‐1.2‐1.src.rpm) contain a device driver for
the MULTIMODEM PRODUCT ’s TI USB 3410 processor in the Linux 2.6 kernels.
the MULTIMODEM PRODUCT ’s TI USB 3410 processor in the Linux 2.6 kernels.
These packages have been tested on the Fedora Core 2 Linux distribution.
Most likely these packages work on many other Linux distributions based on the 2.6 kernels, but this has not yet
been tested. Note that different distributions can make custom changes to the Linux kernel, and there is a small
chance that these changes might be incompatible with this package.

chance that these changes might be incompatible with this package.
The TI USB 3410/5052 driver has been tested in the kernel.org kernels 2.6.5 through a pre‐release version of
2.6.10, and in the Fedora Core 2 kernels 2.6.5‐1.358 and 2.6.9‐1.6. There are limitations in kernels before 2.6.8;
see the section on Known Limitations in the Release Notes file for kernel 2.6.

this chapter).

Installing the Kernel Sources
To build the TI USB driver you must have the matching kernel sources for your kernel.
In particular, you must have the file usb‐serial.h for your kernel sources. Sometimes Linux distributions include
the kernel headers but not the complete kernel sources, and usb‐serial.h is missing. However, the complete
kernel sources should still be available as a separate add‐on package.

kernel sources should still be available as a separate add‐on package.
To verify that you have matching kernel sources, run "uname ‐r" to get the version of the running kernel. Then
check for the directory /usr/src/linux‐<version>, /lib/modules/<version>/source, /lib/modules/<version>/build, or
/usr/src/linux‐<stripped_version>, where stripped_version has the extra version information removed. In these
directories look for the files include/linux/autoconf.h, .config, and drivers/usb/serial/usb‐serial.h.

If you do not find the correct kernel source directory, you must find and install the kernel sources from your
distribution CDs or other media.
