Bryon & Antonio > PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1f.6 to 64 is OK since it is activated in the end. Bryon, The only modem driver needed is the snd-intel8x0m So within /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base-blacklist, change at lines # blacklist snd-atiixp-modem # blacklist snd-via82xx-modem to blacklist snd-atiixp-modem blacklist snd-via82xx-modem Using $ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base-blacklist When you installed the sl-modem-daemon package, it wrote over your 2.9.11 slmodemd with an older version 2.9.9e at /usr/sbin/slmodemd . Check with: $ slmodemd --version You want to replace the 2.9.9e with the one from the SLMODEMD package. First # /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon stop then replace Then $ slmodemd --version should report 2.9.11 Start # /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon start and # wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf should find the modem, as all the other diagnostics are now fine.
