Hello, struggling with my laptop's softmodem for a couple of days without luck I like to ask for help. As -from my current point of view- it seems to be an alsa issue, I post to this list. Symptom: Modem does not dial. Sound is working (not everything tested yet, but I can listen to some music). System is home-brewn linux with kernel 2.6.20.1, glibc-2.3.6, gcc-3.4.3, .. Testing with mincom looks the following: root@L5826-be:~# minicom Welcome to minicom 2.2 OPTIONS: I18n Compiled on Mar 14 2007, 15:39:54.
