Ludmil Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command: sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa modem:1 reporting dynamic creation of ports: /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number Read DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. Since the sl-modem-daemon package is already installed upon your System, the setup is done automatically on boot. After boot you can do $ sudo /etc/init.s/sl-modem-daemon restart Then check the version with: $ sudo slmodemd --version which should report 2.9.11 Check for existence of the expected ports with: $ ls -l /dev/ttySL0 /dev/pts/* If present, the modem should be found by: $ sudo wvdial.conf /etc/wvdial.conf Edit in personal information with: $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf removing the symbols ; < > and adding a line: Carrier Check = no Then try to dialout with: $ sudo wvdial MarvS On Fri, Jan 16, 2009 at 3:13 PM, ludmil todorov <ludmil@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, > > Here is the file from the scan modem tool.
