RE: In your case (ALSA driver) just do as root "/etc/init.d/slmodemd restart" For the Debian related distributions including Ubuntu derivatives,there is a package sl-modem-daemon providing such start/stop/restartfunctions, with corresponding command$ sudo /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon restart These scripts provide for setup upon boot of the modem through the command: slmodemd -c USA --alsa modem:1or equivalent for your System. The configuration settings are in/etc/default/sl-modem-daemon , with maintenance by "Eduard Bloch"<blade@xxxxxxxxxx> Note that it provides the slmodemd provided is NOT as recent as thatin the SLMODEMD.gccN.tar.gz athttp://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/ So if you search out with sl-modem-daemon the package athttp://packages.ubuntu.com/ and install it with$ sudo dpkg -i sl-modem*.debyou may wish to replace its older slmodemd with that fromhttp://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/Just copy the newer slmodemd to /usr/sbin/slmodemd$ sudo cp slmodemd /usr/sbin/slmodemd MarvS On 2/8/07, Joern Wuestenfeld <j.wuestenfeld@xxxxxx> wrote:> Hi Matthew, Marvin,>> just to give some technical insight:>> The power management of most drivers is still focused on APM, while most> systems nowadays have ACPI.
