John, This is a second case that returns something like this, I would suspect that the output /* The /proc/asound/pcm file reports: ----------------------- 00-01: Intel ICH - MIC ADC : SiS SI7012 - MIC ADC : capture 1 00-00: Intel ICH : SiS SI7012 : playback 1 : capture 1 */ should have output somewhere a Modem part and it did not. Might be something different. I guess it would be wise to wait for Marv's advice on this one. Unless the part /* Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: 18: 495 IO-APIC-fasteoi SiS SI7012 --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:02.6 ---- [ 12.180926] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:02.6[C] GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 18 [ 13.814697] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:02.6[C] -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 18 [ 13.814704] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:02.6 disabled The PCI slot 00:02.6 of the modem card may be disabled early in a bootup process, but then enabled later. If modem drivers load but the modem is not responsive, read DOCs/Bootup.txt about possible fixes. Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx if help is needed. */ is the culprit. Nonetheless the Modem part should appear to be supported by slmodemd. Hope this gets to Marv and he'll give you better advice.
