Efectively I ran in 1st Console window:
sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa -s hw:0,1
- Response
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Feb 15 2007
23:08:19
symbolic link /dev/ttySL0' -> /dev/pts/1' created.
modem hw:0,1' created. TTY is /dev/pts/1'
Use /dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for
termination.
Then open a second Console window and ran the test below.
¿ Do I need to load another driver ?
Thanks and Regards

Felix,
Look below at your output from wvdial:
"--> Cannot get information for serial port." means that there is no
modem.
Winmodems/Linmodems are virtual modems, not hardware, but software
simulating a hardware modem. The DRIVER is this virtual modem.
So you have no driver in memory.
The driver works well as shown by the output of wvdialconf shown in
your earlier message
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00569.html
My conclusion at this time is therefore that slmodemd was not running
in all your attempts to start wvdial.
Excuse me, but have you started slmodemd in one window, NOT stopped
it, and started wvdial in an OTHER window?

Felix,
Just for statistical purposes, can you please tell us if you had
inserted the line
Carrier Check = no
in your file /etc/wvdial.conf
BEFORE sending your call for help?
Your report is remarkably complete, should be an example for many
people, but is lacking that small detail, which as you see is
essential to help you.
Thanks in advance - Jacques

am I missing some step ?
You can add X3 to the dialing step in wvdial.conf
in the "Init2 = " part
in my case the following does the trick. X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90
[olivares@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/wvdial.conf
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttySL0
Baud = 460800
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = 7072000
Username = aaolivares
Password = mypassword
Carrier Check = no
Stupid Mode = 1
Auto DNS = yes
Try this and report back. If the case is that this
does not work, please execute $ dmesg and send the last few lines
or any relevant output
that you might get.

Antonio

Felix,
Your modem is a Subsystem under
00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi
Corporation M5451 PCI
AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 01)
with SUBSYS_00011179 typically having an
AgereSystems softmodem chip
Download from
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz having a
compiled slmodemd. Unpack
under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the
modem is setup with
command:
sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa -s
hw:0,1
reporting dynamic creation of ports:
/dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some
number
Read Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for
follow through guidance.
VENEZUELA is not among the countries output by
$ slmodemd --countrylist
For YOUR_COUNTRY, you can use USA for initial
testing.
But check with your local Linux group through
http://www.linux.org/groups/index.html
to assess what CountryCode they are using
