try setserial /a <cr> or try the setup command sinze one of the services it offers is to allow you to configure your sound card. You do not have a file called /etc/wvdial.conf right? If that command had run at all correctly you should have at least a skeleton there. linuxconf may or may not work for you, you can try rpm -IVh linuxconf then hit escape when in the directory where it's at. That won't uncompress the rpm package but should install it for you if it's not corrupted. x
