There is a conflict with the sound drivers :( <direct from scanModem> The snd-trident driver is not fully compatible with slmodemd support. The may be errors written to /var/log/messages like: codec_semaphore: semaphore is not ready [0x1][0x1300] Check with: $ dmesg | grep semaphore A potential work around is to unload drivers: # modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m # modprobe -r snd-intel8x0 # modprobe -r snd-trident Then reload only: # modprobe snd-intel8x0 # modprobe snd-intel8x0m and test the modem. If snd-trident cannot be unloaded, it may be necessary to disable it by: # cd /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/sound/pci/trident/ # mv snd-trident.ko snd-trident.ko~ After a reboot, verify that the driver is not loaded. It should NOT be disaplayed by: $ lsmod | grep snd-trident. Once a success with the modem has been obtained, the setup can be made easier by adding to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist (or equivalent on your System) blacklist snd_intel8x0m blacklist snd_trident and to /etc/modules snd_intel8x0 snd_intel8x0m </direct quote from scanModem> Please try the above instructions and hopefully you can get connected.
