Emanuele,
Every think seems OK, except it is obscure how that uucp choice isbeing established. Let's try adding you & root to that group.Start on the top bar:System -> Admin. -> Users & Groups -> Manage Groupsif uucp is not in the listing, thenAdd Groupwith members Root & EmanuelSave and exit
Afterward to verify. check with$ grep uucp /etc/groupuucp:x:10:marv,root-------------------is what to expect.
You have to go through a Logout & Login (or reboot)for these settings to be read.
Make sure an ordinary phone is working on that phone line.and that there are no extension adapters in the line going to the PCWe have had a case of wiring within adapters being incorrect.
Retest the dial out.
