Davide, If running scanModem generated in the Modem/ folder a file like ALSADdavide.tgz, please send it to me. If ---------- PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name ---------- --------- --------- -------------- 00:1b.0 8086:284b 103c:30d8 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H ---------- is going to work with slmodemd support, the device name CANNOT be modem:0 . This is the audio function. THough competent with wvdialconf, it lacks the COMM support to get on line.
