Jean, Once there is the modem activation with: /dev/ttySL0 -> /dev/pts/0 Leave slmodemd running and open a 2nd console or TAB to to the testing. The modem should be found by root command # wvdialconf Then to prepare for a dialout # gedit /etc/wvdial.conf putting in your personal information and removing the symbols < > ; Try a dialout with: # wvdial Note that the driver occassionally dies. Do Ctrl-C to kill slmodemd. Unload the driver # modprobe -r snd-intelx0m reload # modprobe snd-intelx0m and again activate the modem. MarvS Separately, I'll send you some info on fax usage.
