I have such a modem on a TOSHIBA laptop, did all of the above in trying to make it work, Compiled alsa + alsa-libs, compiled slmodem-2.9.11-20070505 and slmodem-2.9.11-20070813 with the patch, same results. Did it both in Fedora Rawhide which I run on the laptop and on SLAX linux live cd which I frequently use as well. I failed miserably with it. I also got the period 48 error and the invalid argument. Marv told me from the beginning that the modem was unsupported and that LSI was trying to make it work, but it is a work in progress and that he would keep us informed if changes were made. I lost sound along the way, and I failed to make the modem work due to my stubborness, but I kept it to myself and did not confess to the list, except to let them know that the period 48 error did go away with the patch. Also because of this modem and the recommendation of SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz which was needed by Manuel according to scanModem, I thought that something was fishy from the begining. I too saw the link to the side, but as Marv has pointed out it is for the other codec, not the one that Manuel's laptop and my laptop have. Marv is correct, and Jacques is correct as well. We will have to dismiss this case and all of the effort made to make this modem work with linux, it might get there, but it is just not there now. If someone offers code to make it work, I'll be willing to give up some time to try it out and report back. Regards, Antonio BTW if you need scanModem report for my modem I can send it at any time.
