aneta@ubuntu:~$ 
aneta@ubuntu:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon stop
[sudo] password for aneta: 
Shutting down SmartLink Modem driver normally.
Unloading modem driver from kernel ... snd_atiixp_modem.
aneta@ubuntu:~$ sudo modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m
aneta@ubuntu:~$ sudo modprobe  snd-intel8x0m
aneta@ubuntu:~$ sudo slmodemd -c AUSTRALIA --alsa modem:1
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Aug  3 2008 21:41:20
symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/0' created.
modem `modem:1' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/0'
Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination.
aneta@ubuntu:~$ 

This is looking better, but where do I go from here?
GNOME PPP still can't detect the modem.
Do I have to run "sudo slmodemd -c AUSTRALIA --alsa modem:1" everytime I want to use the modem, or is this a once off command.
Should I use GNOME PPP or should I use something else.
Pls advise.

Thanks
Rick

Rick,

Try shutting down all audio functions, and
$ sudo /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon stop
then retest.
