Hello:
I followed your instructions and placed the SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz
package in the /usr/sbin directory and unpacked it. I ran the file
inside of it and got the following:
kendall@localhost:/usr/sbin/SLMODEMD.gcc4.2$ sudo gedit
/etc/wvdial.confsudo: unable to resolve host localhost

slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6
sudo: unable to resolve host localhost
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Feb 25 2008 18:25:57
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.
I have no idea what this means but I'm still not able to dial out. I
used the "Detect Modem" button on the gui but it was unable to find the
modem. The strange thing about this is the first time I attempted to
get this working I placed the folder in the tmp directory and it was
working but the SLMODEMD.gcc4.2 package would disappear when I restarted
my computer. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
