DL RE: CPU=i686, Linux version 2.6.26-2-686 (Debian gcc version 4.1.3 with Modem: Motorola SM56 Data Fax Modem " CLASS=0703 PCIDEV=1057:3052 --------------- Is the sl-modem-daemon package installed? If so, it automates # modprobe ungrab-winmodem # modprobe slamr and port creation Check for ports after bootup with: $ ls -l /dev/ttySL0 /dev/slamr0 /dev/pts/* The /dev/slamr0 is essential for support for function of 1057:3052 chipset function If these ports are there the sl-modem-daemon scripts should have activated the modem, so it should suffice to: # wvdial provided /etc/wvdial.conf contains the line: Carrier Check = no If the sl-modem-daemon package is not installed you must manually create the port with: # mknod -m 600 /dev/slamr0 c 242 0 before slamr loading If the sl-modem-daemon package is not installed, activate the modem with: # slmodemd -c CANADA /dev/slamr0 You can automate port creation by writing a file with: # gedit /etc/modprobe.d/slamr.conf containing a single line (not folded as in this email): install slamr modprobe --ignore-install ungrab-winmodem ; modprobe --ignore-install slamr; test -e /dev/slamr0 || (/bin/mknod -m 660 /dev/slamr0 c 242 0 2>/dev/null && chgrp dialout /dev/slamr0) with this line: # modprobe slamr will preload ungrab-winmodem and create the /dev/slamr0 to: MarvS scanModem maintainer On Thu, Feb 18, 2010 at 3:44 PM, David Hammett <doclinux@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Thanks Antonio > > Sorry about not getting back sooner.
