Hi, I have done the download of drivers and utilities for my 11c11040 agrsm modem , and installed both, Then ran sudo modprobe agrmodem sudo modprobe agrserial And agrsm-test, with the following output: Loading drivers: Drivers loaded: agrserial 12032 0 agrmodem 1250948 1 snd_hda_codec 75708 3 agrmodem,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel snd 59204 17 agrmodem,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,s nd _pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_seq_oss,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_tim er ,snd_seq_device and symbolic link created: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2010-03-18 11:20 /dev/ttySAGR -> /dev/ttyAGS3 Checking for utility wvdialconf Found /usr/bin/wvdialconf, preparing to run: wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0 S1 S2 S3 Killed A reboot may be necessary before modem detection through: sudo modprobe agrserial Which will load agrmodem, agrserial and create the symbolic link needed for: sudo wvdialconf The installation record has been written to ./agrsm-test.txt. Then when run wvdialconf wvtest, the output is: Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0 S1 S2 S3 And computer hangs...! Then, I have rebooted the PC and run modprobe agrmodem modprobe agrserial Next, run sudo wvdialconf This is the output of dmesg command and sudo tail -f / var/log/messages command: [ 149.796348] * Hello Agere Driver ** [ 149.796398] usbcore: registered new interface driver agr12dec2006 [ 152.434964] Loading module Agere Modem Controller driver version 2.1.80 (2007-10-01) [ 152.434972] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint [ 167.727354] serial8250_register_ports: BaseAddress 0x0004 Irq 17 [ 167.727367] ttyAGS3 at I/O 0x4 (irq = 17) is a AgereModem [ 167.727480] agrserial - ret_val 0, call: lt_modem_ops.init_modem [ 167.727489] Loading module Agere Modem Interface driver version 2.1.80.0 (2007-10-01) [ 199.297931] ==> codecType = 0x32 [ 199.329169] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000060 [ 199.329185] IP: [<f8b11498>] ResumeCallBack+0x18/0x34 [agrmodem] [ 199.329289] *pde = 242d1067 *pte = 00000000 [ 199.329299] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [ 199.329308] last sysfs file: /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness [ 199.329316] Modules linked in: agrserial agrmodem nls_utf8 nls_iso8859_1 nls_cp437 vfat isofs fat binfmt_misc ppdev bridge stp bnep mmc_block joydev snd_hda_codec_realtek arc4 ecb snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_hwdep snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss snd_pcm snd_seq_dummy snd_seq_oss snd_seq_midi snd_rawmidi iptable_filter ip_tables x_tables snd_seq_midi_event iwl3945 iwlcore mac80211 pcmcia btusb lp parport snd_seq snd_timer snd_seq_device snd cfg80211 fujitsu_laptop yenta_socket rsrc_nonstatic pcmcia_core psmouse serio_raw sdhci_pci sdhci led_class soundcore snd_page_alloc fbcon tileblit font bitblit softcursor i915 drm i2c_algo_bit usbhid ohci1394 ieee1394 video output sky2 intel_agp agpgart [ 199.329474] [ 199.329483] Pid: 2252, comm: wvdialconf Tainted: P (2.6.31-20-generic #58-Ubuntu) LifeBook A6020 [ 199.329492] EIP: 0060:[<f8b11498>] EFLAGS: 00210282 CPU: 1 [ 199.329586] EIP is at ResumeCallBack+0x18/0x34 [agrmodem] [ 199.329593] EAX: cf91c800 EBX: 00000000 ECX: 00ff4000 EDX: f8b11480 [ 199.329600] ESI: e4917c9c EDI: cf91c800 EBP: e4917c58 ESP: e4917c40 [ 199.329607] DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 00e0 SS: 0068 [ 199.329615] Process wvdialconf (pid: 2252, ti=e4916000 task=ef4f57f0 task.ti=e4916000) [ 199.329621] Stack: [ 199.329625] 00000000 00000003 0002682c cf91c800 e4917c9c cf91c800 e4917c64 f8fa2ca2 [ 199.329644] <0> cf91c800 e4917c70 f8fa0d84 cfac6800 e4917c94 f8fa0e20 100f0000 0100d89c [ 199.329663] <0> e4917c9c cfac6874 000f0000 e4917c9c f8256028 e4917ca8 f8fa1e41 ffffffff [ 199.329685] Call Trace: [ 199.329713] [<f8fa2ca2>] ? hda_call_codec_resume+0x42/0x70 [snd_hda_codec] [ 199.329737] [<f8fa0d84>] ? snd_hda_power_up+0x34/0x60 [snd_hda_codec] [ 199.329759] [<f8fa0e20>] ? codec_exec_verb+0x70/0xc0 [snd_hda_codec] [ 199.329791] [<f8fa1e41>] ? snd_hda_codec_read+0x31/0x40 [snd_hda_codec] [ 199.329859] [<f8b41999>] ?
