I have unpacked SLMODEMD:
$ tar -zxvf ./SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz
And I believe this makes SLMODEMD an executable file:
$ chmod +x slmodemd
$ sudo cp slmodemd /usr/sbin
And I think this verifies the location:
$ find /usr -name slmodemd
=> /usr/sbin/slmodemd
So then I installed SLMODEMD:
$ sudo slmodemd -c CANADA --alsa hw:0,6
=> SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Feb 17 2008 09:31:10
=> 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.
So then I worked on wvdial.
$ which wvdial
=> /usr/bin/wvdial
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
=>Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.
=> Scanning your serial ports for a modem.
=> Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0 S1 S2 S3
=> Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program?
=> Did you configure it properly with setserial?
=> Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial
=> If you still have problems, send mail to <wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx>.
I have tried the url to find the FAQ, can't find it.
And I have emailed them to ask for the FAQ url, no response.
So I have evaluated the sound card:
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
=> 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
=> HDA Intel at 0xd8240000 irq 21
And run uname:
$ uname -a
Linux anitas-computer 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC
2007 i686 GNU/Linux
And confirmed module-init-tools:
$ dpkg -s module-init-tools
=> Package: module-init-tools
=> Status: install ok installed
What is my next step?
Thank you,
Anita.
