You use the slamr module instead, with your pci modem. I'm observing a problem with the usb, where the modem seems to lock up and gives the message "fifo underrun" in the /var/log/kern.log. This happens every hour or few. The only way to recover is to stop dialup, rmmod the module (slusb), then modprobe and restart the driver and dialup. I have previously reported this here, and believe it's being worked on. Do you have the line added to the /etc/modprobe conf file? install slamr modprobe --ignore-install ungrab-winmodem ; modprobe --ignore-install slamr; test -e /dev/slamr0 || (/bin/mknod -m 660 /dev/slamr0 c 242 0 2>/dev/null && chgrp uucp /dev/slamr0)in your case, I belive you need to change slamr0 to slusb and see if that makes a difference, that of course if the above line is not in the file /etc/modprobe.conf file. Are you having this same problem with the slamr in kernel 2.6.20? Nope. the modem worked flawlessly for two and a half hours. Only tested it yesterday, but it seemed to work without a problem. Have you run it successfully for several hours? For two or more only. No problems as of yet.
