Rick, For the sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0m driver case, a complete reboot may not be necessary. First stop wvdial with: Cntrl-C Then unload and reload the driver: $ sudo modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m $ sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0m Restart slmodemd $ sudo slmodemd -c AUSTRALIA --alsa modem:1 This can be done from your home folder, as it finds /usr/sbin/slmodemd Being in Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.2/ is not necessary Then try: $ sudo wvdial You can try putting his in a script mr (for modem retest) $ sudo gedit /usr/locl/bin/mr with the following lines: #!/bin/sh killall wvdial modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m sleep 0.1 modprobe snd-intel8x0m echo "Restarting slmodemd" /usr/sbin/slmodemd -c AUSTRALIA --alsa modem:1 #end Make executable with $ sudo chmod +x /usr/locl/bin/mr Use it with: $ sudo mr and then the usual: $ sudo wvdial Sorry but I must relate that other dialers have not been found to be reliable with slmodemd usage.
