Nitin, Not sure what the issue is. But try within the slmodem folder just again running # make install Check that the /dev/slamr0 is created: # ls -l /dev/slamr0 There are a number of reports of successful use of the ungrab-winmodem+ slamr drivers Note that it is commonly necessary to # modprobe -r slamr # modprobe slamr What version is shown by: # slmodemd --version should be 2.9.11 After: # slmodemd -c USA /dev/slamr0 Check ports with: # ls -l /dev/slamr0 /dev/ttySL0 MarvS After between successive dialouts during the same Linux session.
