I got to modify wvdial.conf (with vi) [Dialer Defaults] Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Modem = /dev/ttySL0 Phone = 7020187187 Idle Seconds = 300 Modem Type = Analog Modem Stupid Mode = 1 Compuserve = 0 Baud = 460800 Auto DNS = 1 Dial Command = ATDT Ask Password = 0 ISDN = 0 Password = telecom Username = telecom Carrier Check = no after I run: linux-amosse:/ # wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56 (abuild@mandelbrot) --> Cannot open /dev/ttySL0: No such file or directory --> Cannot open /dev/ttySL0: No such file or directory --> Cannot open /dev/ttySL0: No such file or directory If I check at /dev/ttySL0 it doesn't exist So I tried again: linux-amosse:/usr/sbin # slmodemd -c ITALY --alsa modem:1 ALSA support is not compiled in (see README for howto). I got some information about SuseItalia.org in order to charge this file: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/non-oss/suse/i586/smartlink-softmodem-2.9.10-148.i586.rpm http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/non-oss/suse/i586/smartlink-softmodem-kmp-default-2.9.10_2.6.22.5_31-148.i586.rpm I did it, after I made # modprobe slamr # slmodemd --country=ITALY /dev/slamr0 error: mdm setup: cannot stat '/dev/slamr0: no such file or direc error: cannot setup device '/dev/slamr0' After I made even: amosse@linux-amosse:~> wvdialconf wvtest Editing `wvtest'.

Is it in use by another program? Did you configure it properly with setserial? Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial If you still have problems, send mail to <wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx>. I don't know if this information can help........? Amos
