Antonio,
You are correct, I did send in my ModemData.txt before but since have
reloaded and started over fresh, so I thought I should send it in again
in case something changed.
I've tried that SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz package but had no luck. As of
current, I have the sl-modem-daemon installed, I did this through
synaptic and it's installed in /usr/sbin but I guess that isn't enough
since it still doesn't work.
jaysen@jaysens-laptop:~$ locate slmodemd
/home/jaysen/Downloads/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3/slmodemd
/home/jaysen/Downloads/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3/slmodemd.txt
/usr/sbin/slmodemd
/usr/sbin/slmodemd.2.9.11
/usr/share/man/man8/slmodemd.8.gz
/var/log/slmodemd
jaysen@jaysens-laptop:~$
A problem that I've been having is when I try to use the
SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz package. First I uninstall the sl-modem-daemon
that I originally installed through synaptic. Then from within my
SLMODEMD.gcc4.3 folder, I run sudo ./setup and this is the output I get
./setup: 4: slmodemd: not found
Copying slmodemd to /usr/sbin/slmodemd, making exectuable, and checking
for version 2.9.11
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Aug 3 2008 22:31:06
Version verified: 2.9.11
With root permission, the typical activation command is:
for modems hosted on High Definition Audio cards
slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6
for modems of the AC'97 family
slmodemd -c USA --alsa modem:1
for modems on ALI5451 sound cards
slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,1
for Smartlink chipset PCI card modems:
slmodemd -c USA /dev/slamr0
for Smartlink chipset USB modems
slmodemd -c USA /dev/slusb0
If not in the USA, replace USA with a country from the output of:
slmodemd --countrylist
For other slmodemd parameters, query with:
slmodemd --help
Report any problems to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
jaysen@jaysens-laptop:~/Downloads/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$
Next I run sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6 and this is the output of
that command.
jaysen@jaysens-laptop:~/Downloads/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ sudo slmodemd -c USA
--alsa hw:0,6

Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination.
Next, in another terminal window while slmodemd is still running, I do
sudo wvdialconf and here is the output.
jaysen@jaysens-laptop:~$ sudo wvdialconf

Now I am going to modify the wvdial.conf per your instructions. Note,
I've replace the phone #, username and password with *** for privacy.
[Dialer Defaults]
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = **********
ISDN = 0
Username = *************
Init1 = ATZ
Password = ********
Modem = /dev/ttySL0
Baud = 460800
Carrier Check = No
Stupid Mode = 1
Next I will try to connect using wvdial note that I still have slmodemd
running in a terminal window. I am not sure if I need to keep that
running when I dial or not. Maybe you can advise me on this.
sudo wvdial (with slmodemd running in another terminal. Note, wvdial is
trying to use /root/.wvdial.conf, not /etc/wvdial.conf which is what I
changed to the settings above, so I replaced /root/.wvdial.conf to match
the settings above) This is what I get.
jaysen@jaysens-laptop:/$ sudo wvdial

So it seems like everything I try fails. Now what??? I am at a loss

Jaysen,
I believe that you have sent ModemData.txt before but I overlooked the
x86_64 bit part. Maybe that could be the cause of your failures?
scanModem reports(ed) that you need SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz
For candidate modem in: 00:1b.0
0403 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H
Primary device ID: 8086:284b
Subsystem PCI_id 14c0:0025
Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: 0x10573055
from Archives:
The HDA card softmodem chip is 0x10573055
Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd supporting the snd-hda-intel
audio+modem driver
An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver: snd-hda-intel
provides Low Level support enabling contact with the modem hardware.
For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem software)
complementary High Level support is through a Smartlink utility: slmodemd
Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack
under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa hw:0,6
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.
You have to modify your wvdial.conf file to look like:
[olivares@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/wvdial.conf
[Dialer Defaults]
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = ISPs_phone_no_goes_here
ISDN = 0
Username = your_username_goes_here
Init1 = ATZ
Password = *****************
Modem = /dev/ttySL0
Baud = 460800
Carrier Check = No
Stupid Mode = 1
Try to connect and post your error messages so that we can see how to
help. Note the Init2 string here, also take a look at
Modem/DOCs/wvdial.txt for more guidance.
Regards,
Antonio

I am in the USA, I've posted before but still no luck. I have the
slmodem driver loaded and and it seems to detect it. but still can't
dial. Attached is my ModemData.txt
