DC, Others have reported problems with that particular STAC92xx Analog hardware, though physically, it was the easiest to try first. Next try putting int the PCI card that gave diagostic: 01-00: Intel ICH - Modem : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Modem - Modem : playback 1 The setup command for this card is: $ sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa modem:1 The driver occassionaly dies during usage. But one can recover by stopping slmodemd with $ Ctrl-C Then unload and reload the driver $ sudo modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m $ sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0m and reactivate the modem: $ sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa modem:1 MarvS On Mon, Mar 31, 2008 at 3:38 PM, D.
