I am sorry to say, but that is not important. The modem does not dial. I run wvdial and it does not dial, kppp did not dial, so I check with wvdial and it does not dial. Something has to be wrong with the code or with the kernel. It worked well before and now it is not working. If I revert back to slmodemd-2.9.11-20070505, and I run wvdial the modem is at least making sounds trying to call out it does not dial, and with the newer slmodem-2.9.11-20080126 and the other one slmodem-2.9.11-20080226 compile fine and produce the appropriate files root@slax:~# ls -l /lib/modules/2.6.24/extra/ total 571 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 554560 Mar 6 13:20 slamr.ko -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22272 Mar 6 13:20 slusb.ko -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6840 Mar 6 13:22 ungrab-winmodem.ko root@slax:~# The size of slamr.ko is a little smaller than what it was before, but it used to work and now it does not. I wonder what could be wrong.
