Steve, See Jacques comment below. From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php get the hsfmodem_7.68.00.04full_k2.6.22_14_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip under Linux: $ unzip hsf*.zip start the install with: $ sudo dpkg -i hsf *.deb If all is well the modem should be found by: $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf through a reboot might be necessary. If the modem is thus found, edit in personal info with: $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf deleting the ; and replacing the <xxx> with your personal info. THen try a dial out with: $ sudo wvdial Report back at this point. MarvS ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jacques Goldberg <Jacques.Goldberg@xxxxxxx> Date: Dec 1, 2007 1:25 PM Subject: Re: Steve Larrow, U.S.A., kernel 2.6.22-14-generic To: Marvin Stodolsky <marvin.stodolsky@xxxxxxxxx> Marv, This particular Riptide modem is supported by the HSF driver according to the Linuxant RIPTIDE submenu. I agree that the line says that the Riptide driver can optionally be installed and that the Riptide driver is not supported under 2.6 kernels. I believe however that the modem does work as modem with the appropriate kernel, while the sound is lost. I prefer however to leave you the decision to inform Steve because I may be wrong. It would anyway be a good idea, I believe, to asl him to try, so that we will know for sure - but again you may know something not clearly explicited on the Linuxant site.
