Hi all, Im from mexico, This far I have received a great support from Marvin Stoldosky, but he told me that he'll rarely be online in the next 10 days, so I'm witing to you because in spite of I've been able, with the great guidance of Marvin, to advance some steps, my modem still is not working, here is what i've done this far: $ sudo slmodemd -c MEXICO --alsa hw:0,6 [sudo] password for mario: SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.9e-pre1 Sep 30 2007 00:07:03 symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/1' created. modem `hw:0,6' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/1' Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination. In another terminal: $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'. Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

And so on.... Meanwhile, in the termilar runing slmodem, it said: error: period size 48 is not supported by playback (64). error: period size 48 is not supported by playback (64). error: period size 48 is not supported by playback (64). error: period size 48 is not supported by playback (64). error: period size 48 is not supported by playback (64). And so on... I'll really appreciate the last step of help to make this modem work, Thanks.
