Nonni, The modem driver is snd-intel8x0m, already on your System 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:\par $ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.3_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz\par and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:\par $ sudo slmodemd -c CANADA --alsa modem:1 reporting dynamic creation of ports:\par /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number Read DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. You seem to have installed the sl-modem-daemon package. If so do $ sudo gedit /etc/default/ sl-modem-daemon and change the Country from USA to CANADA. Then there is already done during bootup, the slmodemd -c CANADA --alsa modem:1 and the modem should be found by: $ sudo wvdialconf Edit in your personal information by: $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf removing the symbols: < > ; and adding a line: Carrier Check = no Thereafter your should be able to dialout with: $ sudo wvdial If the modem occassional dies, just do $ sudo /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon restart MarvS On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 1:58 PM, Nonni Jonsson <nonnijonsson@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hello There > > I am trying to find a way of getting my dial up modem working.
