Hi everyone,
I have the slmodemd (for the kernel ernel 2.6.20-16-generic) and it
was compiled correctly with ALSA support and copied over /usr/sbin/
(after the chown command done).
Then I ran: sudo /usr/sbin/slmodemd -c BRAZIL --alsa hw:0,6 and the
output was:
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 May 29 2007 13:36:31
symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/1' created.
modem `hw:0,6' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/1'
Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination.
So it worked!
Thereafter I did on a terminal ' sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf'
and the
modem was configured. I also added some test data in the phone, login
and
pwd fields. However, running 'sudo wvdial' returns an error:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
ATZ
OK
--> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
OK
--> Modem initialized.
---> Sending: ATDT<32565298>
---> Waiting for carrier.
ATDT<32565298>
NO CARRIER
ERROR
--> No Carrier! Trying again.
--> Sending: ATDT<32565298>
--> Waiting for carrier.
And loops on forever. Note that I have added a 'Carrier Check =
no' to wvdial.conf and 32565298 is real phone number where I can hear
the modem calling in. It also says it couldn't get the serial port
info...is this critical?
On the terminal I'm getting the error: period size 48 is not
supported by playback (64)!!
I also need to make the modem load on startup and be available to
other
users besides the root.
Thanks,
Rubens Oliveira
