I'm not at all sure what this has to do with anything. Are you sure you
need isapnp? My LT modem is a mini-pci.

As Sherlock Holmes said "eliminate the impossible". :-) Since you know that
you DO have the right headers - and I trust you - you can pretty much
guarantee that the LT compile isn't looking at the right ones. I recall
having a similar problem.
First, I'm pretty sure you don't need "build_module". "build_deb" alone is
sufficient.
Second, check the output from build_deb immediately before you're told that
your headers are wrong. It tells you exactly where it checked for headers
Now, if you actually have /usr/src/kernel-headers-VERSION, you can use
"./build_deb VERSION", otherwise symlink any of those directory names that
weren't found to your headers directory and it should compile.
I think the author made some invalid assumptions about where headers would
exist, because after installing kernel-source-2.4.18 my kernel headers
weren't where ltmodem could use them, but:
ln -s /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.18 /usr/src/linux-2.4.18
fixed everything.
