Antonio;
After following your furrther instructions sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
gives "Scanning your serial ports for a modem...Failed...giving up". I then
edited the wvdial.conf file using your template and my own particulars and
saved it. sudo wvdial then gives "cannot open /dev/modem: no such file or
directory". Thanks for giving me your time. John W

John,
Sorry I did not read your message carefully. Apparently you have done
all of the above in the previous email. You have done the following
too?
$ sudo modprobe agrmodem
$ sudo modprobe agrserial
$ sudo ln -s /dev/ttyAGS3 /dev/ttySAGR
$ sudo ln -s /dev/ttyAGS3 /dev/modem
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
and the last command does not find the modem? Then maybe you can try
a wvdial.conf file with the /dev/modem as the port and try to dialout?
See following wvdail.conf file, and adjust username, password, and
phone number to dialout and please report back
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/modem
Baud = 57600
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2
Init3 =

John,
scanModem reports thayt you need agrsm-20090418.tar.gz
Download it from
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/agrsm-20090418.tar.gz
extract it with
$ tar -zxvf agrsm-20090418.tar.gz
$ cd agrsm-20090418/
$ make all
$ sudo make install
Please read the instructions provided in Agrsm.txt.
Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 04:07.0:
Modem chipset detected on
NAME="Communication controller: Agere Systems Device 0620"
CLASS=0780
PCIDEV=11c1:0620
SUBSYS=11c1:0620

For candidate modem in: 04:07.0
0780 Communication controller: Agere Systems Device 0620
Primary device ID: 11c1:0620
Support type needed or chipset: agrsm
The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem +
agrsm driver pair.
One resource site is
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/
Thereat get the agrsm_howto.txt and one of the agrsm-tools packages.
The initial agrsm_howto.txt compiling steps are only cogent to modems
with PCI IDs:
11c1:0620, 11c1:048c and 11c1:048f chips.
They use the agrsm-20090418.tar.gz package.
The agrsm-tools sets a useful symbolic link and a agrsm-test utlity
For AgereSystems/LSI with Vendor 11c1 chips hosted on High Definition
Audio cards, there may be support
through the agrsm resources (providing an agrmodem + agrserial driver
pair) as an alternative to usage
of the snd-hda-intel driver + slmodemd helper. For the 11c11040 modem
chip, ONLY the agrsm code is competent.
Your Linux distro's dkms package should be first installed, as it
directs the installation of modem
specific dkms-agrsm resources, and also directs auto-installation of
new drivers upon kernel upgrades.
Currently, the dkms-agrsm code is NOT competent for 2.6.28 and later
kernels.
A short term fix is to install linux-image + linux-headers packages
for earlier kernels.
For detailed instructions for Ubuntu Jaunty with 2.6.28 kernels, see
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg01316.html
The primary dkms-agrsm resource site is
http://linux.zsolttech.com/linmodem/agrsm/
whereat a few different packaging types are available. Debian type
installers (supporting Ubuntu too)
are copied to http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/
. Thereat the current package
is the dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-6_i386.deb is for Agere/LSI chipsets hosted
on High Definition Audio cards.
Read the Modem/DOCs/Agrsm.txt for details.
Regards,
Antonio

Subject: John Williams USA kernel 2.6.28-11.42-generic
This is for the Agere SV92PP modem card. I tried the recommended
package
agrsm-20090418.tar.gz. I also tried dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb with
kernel-image-2.6.27-11-generic-di_2.6.27-11.31_i386.udeb also
linux-headers-2.6.27-11-generic_2.6.27-11.31_i386.deb and
linux-headers-2.6.27-11_2.6.27-11.31_all.deb. In either case the
agrserial
and agrmodem drivers appear to load but wvdialconf gives "Sorry, no
modem
was detected..." Is this worth pursuing or should I save myself the
headaches and just shell out for the US Robotics modem at Wal-Mart? I
am
brand new to Linux on a 500 GB dual boot hard drive so I'm definitely
just
learning as I go. I send along the ModemData and the dmesg.txt. Yours
truly, John Williams
