Hi all, I installed the hsf driver (which required the alsa linuxant driver) but no Modem was detected (see below). =================== sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf [sudo] password for george: Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'. Scanning your serial ports for a modem. Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0 S1 S2 S3 SHSF0 SHSF1 SHSF2 SHSF3 Modem Port Scan<*1>: SHSF4 SHSF5 SHSF6 SHSF7 Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program? Did you configure it properly with setserial? Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial If you still have problems, send mail to <wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx>. ======================================= Can you advise on what to do next ? Thanks in advance. G. K.
