Ankur, Apologies, I forgot the --alas for $ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA hw:0,6 so it should be: $ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA--alsa hw:0,6 Don't bother rurring the setup again. It will add nothing. Your sequence should be: $ sudo ifconfig eth0 down $ sudo ifconfig eth1 down This is expected to fail, but it tests whether the modem has been somehow setup on boot up: $ sudo wvdialconf wvtest Assuming a failure of this wvdialconf $ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA--alsa hw:0,6 should now report port creartion: /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N Assuming this success, the modem has been activated. If should now be found by: $ sudo wvdialconf wvtest Assuming success, now try a dialout: $ sudo wvdial MarvS On Sun, Sep 13, 2009 at 12:20 PM, Ankur Joshi <pharmankur@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Marvin, > > I have tried everything still no success ... > Now when i typed $ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA hw:0,6 > once again it said > 'error: mdm setup: cannot stat `hw:0,6': No such file or directory > > error: cannot setup device `hw:0,6' > > So I tried to install it again .. still nothing is working for me ... > this is my complete output starting from ifconfig :- > > > ankur@ankur:~$ ifconfig > > eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1b:38:a1:94:62 > > UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 > > RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 > > RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) > > Interrupt:19 > > > > eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:21:00:27:6c:dc > > inet6 addr: fe80::221:ff:fe27:6cdc/64 Scope:Link > > UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 > > RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 > > RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) > > Interrupt:17 > > > > lo Link encap:Local Loopback > > inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 > > inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host > > UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 > > RX packets:76 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:76 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 > > RX bytes:6622 (6.6 KB) TX bytes:6622 (6.6 KB) > > > > ankur@ankur:~$ sudo ifconfig eth0 down > > [sudo] password for ankur: > > ankur@ankur:~$ sudo ifconfig eth1 down > > ankur@ankur:~$ ifconfig > > eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:21:00:27:6c:dc > > inet6 addr: fe80::221:ff:fe27:6cdc/64 Scope:Link > > UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 > > RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 > > RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) > > Interrupt:17 > > > > lo Link encap:Local Loopback > > inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 > > inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host > > UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 > > RX packets:84 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:84 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 > > RX bytes:7230 (7.2 KB) TX bytes:7230 (7.2 KB) > > > > ankur@ankur:~$ sudo ifconfig eth1 down > > ankur@ankur:~$ ifconfig > > lo Link encap:Local Loopback > > inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 > > inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host > > UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 > > RX packets:84 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:84 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 > > RX bytes:7230 (7.2 KB) TX bytes:7230 (7.2 KB) > > > > ankur@ankur:~$ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA hw:0,6 > > error: mdm setup: cannot stat `hw:0,6': No such file or directory > > error: cannot setup device `hw:0,6' > > ankur@ankur:~$ cd /Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3 > > ankur@ankur:~/Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ sudo ./setup > > > > There is already installed a slmodemd of version: 2.9.11 > > There is a file /usr/sbin/slmodemd > > Moving /usr/sbin/slmodemd to /usr/sbin/slmodemd.2.9.11 > > 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 > > > > ankur@ankur:~/Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA hw:0,6 > > error: mdm setup: cannot stat `hw:0,6': No such file or directory > > error: cannot setup device `hw:0,6' > > ankur@ankur:~/Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ > > > > > SO IS THIS THE END TO MY HOPES FOR INTERNET CONNECTION ??? > > Regards, > Ankur Joshi > > > > On 9/12/09, Marvin Stodolsky <marvin.stodolsky@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Ankur, >> >> Typically there are but two steps for general modem use after bootup. >> 1) activating the modem.
