Josef The main problem is: [ 1.150192] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1f.6 disabled Read the Bootup.txt for work arounds to get it enabled. Nothing will work until that is achieved. Afterward -------------------- Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command: sudo slmodemd -c SOUTHAFRICA --alsa modem:1 reporting dynamic creation of ports: /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number Read Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. To output the Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt, run $ ./scanModem fake 8086:24d6 1558:0800 MarvS scanModem maintainer On Sun, Mar 2, 2008 at 8:18 AM, Josef van Niekerk <josamoto@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi there.
