Ram, RE: WARNING: /usr/bin/lspci returned error - not checking for modem Thanks for reporting this. I'll boot with the install CD and do a fix for 00:1f.6 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 01) ---------- Just do: $ lspci -s 00:1f.6 $ lspci -s 00:1f.6 -nv and return the output to us. But there are only two mutually exclusinve alternatives: You can first try the freeware route: 2) Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD-1.0.13.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD-1.0.13.tar.gz and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command: sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem:1 reporting dynamic creation of ports: /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number YOUR_COUNTRY is likely USA , UK or INDIA or should the softmodem prove to havea Conexant chipset: 2) From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php download hsfmodem_k2.6.17_10_generic-ubuntu_i386.deb.zip Under Linux unpack with: $ unzip hsfmodem*.zip Then install with: $ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb Subsequently, the modem should be found with $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Edit in your personal information with: $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf and try dialing out with: $ sudo wvdial.
