-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I just noted that modprobe slamr now seems to find a modem too. Here's what it says in dmesg: [37395.519462] slamr: SmartLink AMRMO modem. However, modprobe prints an error to console: # modprobe slamr FATAL: Module ungrab_winmodem not found. Maybe this is the problem? Were can I get this module from? Using this device for slmodemd doesn't work yet: # slmodemd --country=GERMANY /dev/slamr0 error: mdm setup: cannot open dev `/dev/slamr0': No such device error: cannot setup device `/dev/slamr0' Best regards, Victor On Saturday 02 August 2008, Victor Hahn wrote: > Hi, > > thanks a lot for your replies! > > I guess this isn't a USB modem after all.
