Hi people. I tried very hard to install this winmodem on my linux laptop. I have reached to a certain point where I managed to get the driver installed and working but wvdialconf is not detecting my modem. It just goes through the baud rates and then exits. Below is some information of my hardware and modem setup. Maybe someone can give me some information. TrendNet External USB modem. Firmware version: B1.1 Model: TFM-560U Using Gentoo Linux kernel 2.6.30-gentoo-r8 ScanModem detects Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 002: Modem chipset detected on SLOT="Bus 002 Device 013:" NAME="Agere Systems, Inc.

So what you guys think? Is there a way to detect this modem or I need some extra config somewhere. Thanks. Georg
