Hemad, 1) wvdial is not installed :(, scanModem recommends fix: The dialer utility package WVDIAL does not appear to be installed on your System. For Ubuntu users, there are at the bottom of http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ packages with the files necessary to install wvdial, with names like: wvdial_jaunty_amd64.zip for x86_64, 64 bit bus systems. wvdial_jaunty_i386.zip for 32 bit systems. wvdial_karmic_i386.zip for 32 bit systems. These are about 1 MB in size. After downloaded and copied into your Linux partition: $ unzip wv*.zip Within the new folder: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb will complete the wvdial installation Please read Modem/DOCs/wvdial.txt for usage information. 2) You have two drivers installed, namely 536ep and snd_via_modem? loaded: Potentially useful modem drivers now loaded are: snd_via82xx_modem Intel536 You have two options, continue working with Intel536 drivers and make the pci modem work, or try to get the via internal modem work via slmodemd, SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:11.6: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Communication controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.

For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem software) complementary High Level support is through a Smartlink utility: slmodemd Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command: sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem:1 reporting dynamic creation of ports: /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number Read DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. The ALSA verion is 1.0.20 The modem cards detected by "aplay -l" are: card 1: modem [VIA 82XX modem], device 0: VIA 82XX modem [VIA 82XX modem] The /proc/asound/pcm file reports: ----------------------- 00-00: es-1938-1946 : ESS Solo-1 : playback 2 : capture 1 01-00: VIA 82XX modem : VIA 82XX modem : playback 1 : capture 1 about /proc/asound/cards: ------------------------ 0 [Solo1 ]: ES1938 - ESS ES1938 (Solo-1) ESS ES1938 (Solo-1) rev 0, irq 17 1 [modem ]: VIA82XX-MODEM - VIA 82XX modem VIA 82XX modem at 0xcc00, irq 22 If you were not to try SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz and above instructions, you may install wvdial and the drivers are already installed, try the following commands after you install wvdial $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and hopefully it finds modem port /dev/536ep or /dev/modem and then edit the information namely remove the ";", and add username, phone number and password. Let us know how this goes.
