Emanuele In $ sudo ./slmodemd -s -c ITALY --alsa hw:0,0 some of the options are Not appropriate to your card 10b9:5459 -s is only necessary for 10b9:5451 cards --alsa is only necessary with ALSA modem drivers, not including slamr hw:0,0 specifies the audio card, not the modem. Audio cards can be responsive to the wvdialconf test, but cannot later manage COMM functions. For your hardware, the command should be: $ sudo ./slmodemd -c ITALY /dev/slamr0 Double check your version with ./slmodemd --version should be 2.9.11 It OK you can copy it to standard position /usr/sbin/slmodemd MarvS scanModem maintainer On Feb 3, 2008 11:43 AM, Emanuele Pagone <epagone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I followed Jacques advice.
