Re: Karmic Koala and slamr

Roland,

Try changing in /etc/wvdial.conf   to:
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 L3 M1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +MS=34
# Stupid Mode = yes
Should this compensation for poor line quality work, next try
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 L3 M1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +MS=90
for higher speed. The default is +MS=92  , but is known to be faulty
as implemented at some IPs

Also you should read in detail Jacques PostIntall Howto, accessed off
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/

The emerging usages of /dev/pts/N ports was I recall, advocated my
Linus Torvalds, addressing general issues of device ports.
Eventually it is expected that kernel experts will promote the
/dev/pts/N  ports to Sound Competence
But until then, there is no option but to add
  Carrier Check = no
for any modem using a /dev/pts/N  port.
This includes the Mars/Apollo chipset modems from Lucent using the
martian_dev driver
the Smartlink chipset modems, and the many modems using slmodemd + one
of the  ALSA modem drivers
(snd-intel8x0m, snd-atiipx-modem, snd-via82xx-modem or snd-hda-intel)
This is NOT a modem issue per se, it is a kernel development issue.

Many members of this List are happily thus using
Carrier Check = no
This includes Trevor, who reporting success usage of Smartlink chipset
modem on Karmic

Incidentally, there was no support of your Motorola chipset modem at all,
until Zello experimented.  He tried adding init recognition for your
1057:3052 chipset to the slamr code.
Possible there are changes under the 2.6.31 Karmic code which will
fault the support enjoyed under past kernels for the Motorola
1057:3052 chipset.  But alternatively, a solution to the problem may
be found.

If the guidance above doesn't help, there are a few other things to try.
For example, we have had cases where a change to a non Ubuntu kernel
solves the problem,
But try simpler things first.

Lastly, after each dialout try, you should kill slmodemd.
Unload slamr and ungrab-winmodem
Then per the script, reload the drivers and slmodemd setup.
This is necessary because there was a KERNEL code change some versions back,
which bars successive dialouts through the slamr driver

You might also get some details on the failure on your System by
generating a log file with:
$ sudo slmodemd -c USA --debug=2  --log   /dev/slamr0
