First of all thanks for your help. I didn't get my modem working till now, so I try another time. I'm getting tired, maybe it is better to disinstall openSuse and try another distribution; what do you think about that? I attach ModemData, plus dmesg and a file with the description of what my modem does(does not). Thanks again Mario Carlotti

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.3.1 and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.3 Minimal compiling resources appear complete: make utility - /usr/bin/make Compiler version 4.3 linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.25.4-8-pae/build However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files, in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ . For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default. Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions. In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com or comparable Repository for other Linux distros. When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed. If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev If an alternate ethernet connection is available, $ apt-get update $ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel will install needed packages. For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list: Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition, they can be installed alltogether with: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb Checking pppd properties: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root dialout 304644 22 mag 06:54 /usr/sbin/pppd In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html To enable dialout without Root permission do: $ su - root (not for Ubuntu) chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd or under Ubuntu related Linuxes chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options noipdefault noauth crtscts lock modem asyncmap 0 nodetach lcp-echo-interval 30 lcp-echo-failure 4 lcp-max-configure 60 lcp-restart 2 idle 600 noipx file /etc/ppp/filters In case of a message like: Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html Read Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0 wlan0 wmaster0 Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

When I tried: linux-il1g:~ # slmodemd -c ITALY --alsa modem:1 I got: error: alsa setup: cannot open playback device 'modem:1': Device or resource busy error: cannot setup device `modem:1' I also tried with â??wvdialâ??; first: linux-il1g:~ # wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.

Modem configuration written to /etc/wvdial.conf. ttySL0<Info>: Speed 460800; init "ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0" Then I modified the file wvdial.conf in the following way: [Dialer Defaults] Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 X3 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Modem = /dev/ttySL0 Phone = 7007000055 Idle Seconds = 300 Modem Type = Analog Modem Stupid Mode = yes Baud = 460800 Auto DNS = 1 Dial Command = ATDT Ask Password = 1 ISDN = 0 Username = *myusername* Password = *mypassword* Carrier Check = no Auto Reconnect = 0 Login Prompt = 1 by saving the modified copy of the file I got the message: ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 4551, errno = 11 I didn't know what it means, so I run wvdial: linux-il1g:/etc # wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot get information for serial port. --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 X3 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 ATQ0 X3 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Please enter password (or empty password to stop): --> Sending: ATDT7007000055 --> Waiting for carrier.

NO CARRIER ATDT7007000055 --> No Carrier! Trying again. . . . and so on. So I modified wvdial.conf, adding the command â??+MS=34â?? as I read that this may help in Italy, and leaving the askpassword and the automatic Reconnect option. I got: linux-il1g:/etc # wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot get information for serial port. --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 X3 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 +MS=34 ATQ0 X3 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 +MS=34 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT7007000055 --> Waiting for carrier.

Now I am a little bit tired of useless trying. Can you find a sense in what my modem does(not)? I send you a copy of the file dmesg.txt where are the lines I should carefully read.
