How to check , which one   I have the drivers in the kernel ?

"Friend" from pl forum said that, not working internet, because driver for modem zxdsl 852 v2 not working.( this need usb drivers)
I think the driver should be in the kernel.
Example:  I checked  2.6.38 , not exist in http://www.kernel.org/
so  I looked at other and I not see this driver in  [View Patch]
Where pc-linux takes the kernel?
And , is there another way to check what drivers are in the kernel?

Here is a link from 2008, which leads me to think that it may be in the kernel for a while. I is from another distro, so probably only the first four instructions apply:

I hope this helps.

If lsusb  not detect modem , # cat /proc/bus/usb/devices can not work too?

[muungwana]

[tele]

draconair.ovh.org/debian/unicorn-neo.tar.gz

"Friend" tried compile, but not working, maybe for each new kernel need the patch, I do not know.

I'm sorry that my post was incorrect. I found another post that specifically mentioned your device being in the default kernel for a while. The link that I gave was instructions on how to test if indeed the kernel recognized your device. If it does it is redundant to install another driver. If it is not in the kernel, then a package request would be the next step. Installing anything outside the repos, rarely works and is unsupported. This doesn't mean that noone will try to help, just that there is often situations that can't be solved without a common starting point.

According to the information in the link, the first step is:

Code: [Select]

su <enter password>
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
Then, if the output shows that kernel recognizes the device but doesn't activate it, use the information from the previous command to install the module:

modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0×1001

This is not necessarily the best way to find and solve this issue, but it is where I would start.
