Hi Mr. Jacques Goldberg, No, Mr. Jacques, here is the story : After succeeding turning on the modem with : slmodemd -c INDONESIA --alsa modem:1 and tested perfectly with kppp, then I have to arrange so the slmodem loaded each time after reboot, right ? Then I choose to add this line at my /etc/rc.local file : slmodemd -c INDONESIA --alsa modem:1 & rather than editing the /etc/sysconfig/slmodemd or /etc/init.d/slmodemd because it didn't work. After adding that line, reboot my system, and try the modem with kppp it brings an error cause kppp cannot find ttySL0. I have to do this steps : Modprobe -r snd-via82xx-modem Modprobe snd-via82xx-modem Then trying with kppp again, now it succeeded. So I have to add this three lines of command to my etc/rc.local : Modprobe -r snd-via82xx-modem Modprobe snd-via82xx-modem slmodemd -c INDONESIA --alsa modem:1 & Now It works ! I know that is not usual, then I ask Mr. MarvS. :-) So, answering your question is a little bit confusing to me, before or after resetting modprobing the snd-via82xx-modem module ? If after resetting , yes the module was there, and the slmodem also work, until restarting occur. If before resetting, yes the module was there, but the slmodem won't work. The point is the snd-via82xx-modem needs to be resetting after restart to make slmodem to work. Is that usual ? Please advise Mr. Jacques .... I'm really be thankful for your help.

Please do the following and tell me exactly where the problem is: 1-Type /sbin/lsmod . This shows the modules present in memory. Do you see snd-via82xx-modem in the output? You can save the long list by just typing /sbin/lsmod | grep modem 2-If it is not there, modprobe snd-via82xx-modem 3-Try to connect: start slmodemd as usual wvdial (kppp if you use kppp). Success? 4-Reboot 5-Repeat #1 above . /sbin/lsmod | grep modem . Is the driver there? 6-Repeat #3. Success? Then I do not understand why you write: "But why I have to : > Modprobe -r snd-via82xx-modem > Modprobe snd-via82xx-modem > Each time after reboot, if doesn't the slmodemd cannot find the device ???" since obviously slmodemd DOES find the modem (module snd-via82xx-modem). Or are you asking why do you need to start slmodemd after each reboot although snd-via82xx-modem is already in memory? It is trivial to start slmodemd automatically at boot if you do not care for the resources (memory, cpu) which it takes when not in use. The file from which you started, SLMODEMD... , contains instructions and example on how to do that (paragraph number 4 in file README). You can also start the modem connection automatically, by the same method, if you do not care paying for the communication while you do not use it.
