Fight between KUbuntu and the usb modem

Definitively, I'm an unfortunate GNU/Linux user. First of all, I installed
the Flight-3 of KUbuntu in my computer just one day before than the Flight-4
had been released. It isn't a very bad thing, but bothers :)

The really painfull fact, that made me to title the mail with this sentence,
is that the fucker usb modem (a Telefonica's -a Spanish ISP provider-
Comtrend CT-350, I think) doesn't works with the kernel. I have tried to
compile the driver (which I downloaded from
http://dev.eagle-usb.org/wakka.php?wiki=EagleUsb230Fr), and the ./configure
step runs fine[*], later I should unplug and to re-plug the modem (in order
to erase the modem's memory, or at least this says the "make uninstall"'s
output), but when I type "make" and pres enter, the output indicates some
errors :

*servomac at amd64:~/eagle-usb-2.3.2$ sudo make

servomac at amd64:~/eagle-usb-2.3.2$ *

Of course, I have tried to install the drivers from the deb package *
eagle-usb_1.9.8-1_i386.deb*, but it crashes too (and need the ppp on
ethernet package, which isn't in the installation disk).

Anybody can help me?

P.D : When I wrote this I had forgotten to say that to run the ./configure I
needed to install a pppoe package, wich I downloaded from the Debian
Repositories, exactly its 3.5-4
version<http://ftp.egr.msu.edu/debian/pool/main/r/rp-pppoe/pppoe_3.5-4_i386.deb>.
Excuse me.
