Charlotte Thanks for reporting that the setting hw:0 worked. This is totally unexpected since in: /proc/asound/pcm: 00-01: Intel ICH - MIC ADC : SiS SI7012 - MIC ADC : capture 1 00-00: Intel ICH : SiS SI7012 : playback 1 : capture 1 01-00: Intel ICH - Modem : SiS SI7013 Modem - Modem : playback 1 : capture 1 ------------ the last 01-00 predicts modem:1 ,or its hw:1 equivalent Would you please test the functionality of modem:0 and hw:1 modem initiation settings, and report back.

I attempted to follow the instructions and downloaded the slmodemd thing but when I typed in "slmodemd --alsa -c UK modem:1" like it said I should do, I ended up getting the following error message: > >> error: alsa setup: cannot open playback device 'modem:1' : Device or resource busy. > >> error: cannot setup device 'modem:1' > >> > >> I'm fairly new to all this so if you could help that would be great ^_^ > >> > >> Charlotte > >> _________________________________________________________________ > >> Telly addicts unite! > >> http://www.searchgamesbox.com/tvtown.shtml > > > _________________________________________________________________ > Get Hotmail on your mobile, text MSN to 63463! > http://mobile.uk.msn.com/pc/mail.aspx
