Hi,
Again on a fresh install I followed instructions in AgereDSP.txt
Here is my output - the last step or two seems a little different.
Hope this is helpful?
Hopefully,
Rob

Sorry, no modem was detected!  Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?

Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wvdial/

If you still have problems, send mail to wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

 Thanks,
 I did all that and still not working / having trouble.
 I will try again.
 Any other suggestions?
 Thanks,

 The modem has a supported Lucent/Agere Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal

 Vendor 11c1 is Lucent Technologies with modem technology now under LSI
Inc.
Their Linux code developer/maintainer is Soumyendu Sarkar. Support for
a chipset and its
 continued maintenance is only initiated at the request of a major
chipset buyer,
 or comparable sponsor. Several different modem chipset types are
produced:
 with varying support under Linux.

 Completed candidate modem analyses.

 The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
/dev/.udevdb

 Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.1
 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.1



 Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
 make utility - /usr/bin/make
 Compiler version 4.1
 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.18.8.tex5/build

 However some compilations and executable functions may need additional
files,
 in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed
in /usr/include/ .
 For martian_modem, additional required packages are libc6-dev (and for
Debian/Ubuntu, linux-libc-dev). The also required headers of package
libc6 are commonly installed by default.



If a driver compilation files with message including some lack of some
FileName.h (stdio.h for example.
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to
display the needed package list:
$ sudo apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
While some of the files may be on the install CD, others may have to be
found through http://packages.ubuntu.com

For Ubuntu Feisty, additional packages required were:
 libc6-dev linux-libc-dev
available through http://packages.ubuntu.com/ , if not on the install CD.
Such packages may have different names for other Linux distributions.
Try installing just the libc6-dev, then test the compile again.


Checking pppd properties:

In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
 $ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
 chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
 chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd

Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options
lock
noauth
noipdefault
usepeerdns

In case of a message like:
 Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied

 Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
 should trouble shooting be necessary.
