Marvin, thank you for the information. I think it isn't practicable to downgrade my kernel. Is there in future a version of slmodem planed for the kernel 2.6.31 ? "Carrier Check = no" was already in my /etc/wvdial.conf. I made a test with the alsa version of slmodemd. With this software and the option "before dialing wait for free signal" deactivated, I at least could here the dialing of the modem through the pc speaker, but there was no connection (timeout) build. best regards Helmut Freiwald Am 15.01.2010 15:37, schrieb Marvin Stodolsky: > > > > Von: Marvin Stodolsky [marvin.stodolsky@xxxxxxxxx] > > Gesendet: Freitag, 15.
