Hello, Sorry, I've been out for a couple of days and only now I'm doing those tests, but I need some more help. Thanks in advance. I tried to document the steps in order to pinpoint eventual mistakes. botinas:~ # lsmod | grep oss snd_pcm_oss 50432 0 snd_mixer_oss 20096 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 82564 4 snd_pcm_oss,snd_hda_intel snd 58164 13 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm,snd_timer botinas:~ # modprobe -r snd_pcm_oss botinas:~ # modprobe -r snd_mixer_oss botinas:/etc # lsmod | grep intel snd_intel8x0m 21132 0 snd_ac97_codec 97060 1 snd_intel8x0m snd_hda_intel 272796 4 snd_pcm 82564 5 snd_intel8x0m,snd_ac97_codec,snd_hda_intel snd 58164 13 snd_intel8x0m,snd_ac97_codec,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm,snd_timer intel_agp 27156 0 snd_page_alloc 13960 3 snd_intel8x0m,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm agpgart 35764 1 intel_agp with the recommended package: botinas:~ # cd /tmp/SLMODEMD.gcc4.1/ botinas:/tmp/SLMODEMD.gcc4.1 # ./slmodemd -c BRAZIL --alsa hw:0,6 SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Aug 6 2007 22:02:27 symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/5' created. modem `hw:0,6' created.
