Joshua, ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ You've copied over the agr_softmodem startup script, but have you also added it into your /etc/rc.d/rc.local? On my (Slackware) system, with agrsm048, that script creates the /dev/ttySAGR symlink if it doesn't already exist. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I just ran installation and did not add it to /etc/rc.d/rc.local since I was running Slax remix v05. On Slackware 13.0 install, I am starting and stopping the service: root@darkstar:~# /etc/rc.d/rc.agr_softmodem stop root@darkstar:~# /etc/rc.d/rc.agr_softmodem start Starting Agere Soft Modem root@darkstar:~# wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61 --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT7072000 --> Waiting for carrier.
