For every kernel update you must also get/compile matching ungrab-winmodem and slamr drivers. Class 0703: 10b9:5459 Modem: ALi Corporation SmartLink SmartPCI561 56K Modem Primary PCI_id 10b9:5459 Support type needed or chipset: slamr --------- is much easier to keep in service than the Intel-537 types. For 2.6.15-23-686 , there is a package slamr-2.6.15-23-686.tar.gz at http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/Ubuntu/ But it would be better to upgrade to the current Gutsy release and install the matching drivers afterward MarvS On Dec 4, 2007 2:28 PM, Vance and Sarah Rogers <vrogers@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > Marvin, > > I tried to send this to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and it bounced.
