Vlad, A slightly more complex patch is at http://helllabs.org/patch/20070710_slmodem/slmodem-2.9.11-alsa-period-size.patch I used it to compile the slmodemd.gz which will follow, While several have reported a success with it, there are also some failures, which thus seem to be hardware specifiic. These hardware specific faliures should be reported to the ALSA bug system https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/login_page.php First prepare a log of the failure with: slmodemd --debug=2 --log --alsa -hw:0,N (the N appropiate for your System) Followed by the wvdial attempt There is an option for uploading such logs into the bug report. MarvS and need additional attention from ALSA On 9/3/07, Vlad <vladc6@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 with kernel 2.6.20-16-generic.
