Hi Jaccques, Out of curosity I I just Ran tne command setseraal /dev/modem and the result was that the kernel disabled the IRQ (I think the module crashed) Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: irq 185: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c044aab3>] __report_bad_irq+0x2b/0x69 Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c044aca0>] note_interrupt+0x1af/0x1e7 Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<f8bc427f>] cnxt_interrupt+0xf/0x20 [hsfosspec] Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c044a2e7>] handle_IRQ_event+0x23/0x49 Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c044a3c0>] __do_IRQ+0xb3/0xe8 Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c04063f4>] do_IRQ+0x93/0xae Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c040492e>] common_interrupt+0x1a/0x20 Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c0402ccf>] mwait_idle+0x25/0x38 Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c0402c90>] cpu_idle+0x9f/0xb9 Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: ======================= Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: handlers: Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<c057000f>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0x50) Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<f88e2ea7>] (ata_interrupt+0x0/0x16a [libata]) Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: [<f8bc4270>] (cnxt_interrupt+0x0/0x20 [hsfosspec]) Apr 15 01:15:24 www kernel: Disabling IRQ #185 and next when i try wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.con it gives error ar input/output error Then I tried to reinstall the alsa and hsf (same rpms) but without any joy.Finally I reinserted the modem card and i think it works now:- below are some logs:- [root@www ~]# wvdial /etc/wvdial.conf --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.54.0 --> Warning: section [Dialer /etc/wvdial.conf] does not exist in wvdial.conf. --> 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: ATDTxxxxxx --> Waiting for carrier. ATDT23572514 CONNECT 460800 --> Carrier detected. Starting PPP immediately. --> Starting pppd at Thu Apr 15 02:25:58 2010 --> pid of pppd: 4846 --> Using interface ppp0 --> pppd: es --> pppd: es --> pppd: es --> pppd: es --> pppd: es --> local IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx --> pppd: es --> remote IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx --> pppd: es So I think the problem was related to the loose connection may have happened due to the repeated attempt to jackin and jackout of cables (As previously i was suspecting an issue related to faulty cable rj11 at modem end) Now I am getting a strange message sometimes in my syslog.

Was this test executed using the hsf driver answering "yes" when offered to use the replacement driver, or using the ALSA driver as recommended for HDA drivers on the Linuxant Web site?
