Sonia, scanModem reports that your modem is supported through slmodemd (SLMODEMD.gcc.4.4-alsa-1.0.23 .tar.gz) drivers : However, the package that scanModem refters to do does not exist http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/SLMODEMD_gcc4.4_alsa1.0.21.tar.gz is the latest one, Marv, can a package be built for Sonia and for others to use? This package plus some for gcc 4.5 and gcc 4.5.1 do not exist ATM. Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:1e.3: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Modem: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW " CLASS=0703 PCIDEV=8086:266d SUBSYS=1179:0001 IRQ=20 SOFT=8086:266d.MC97 CodecArchived=SIL2f CodecDiagnosed=SIL2f CodecClass=SIL IDENT=slmodemd SLMODEMD_DEVICE=modem:1 Driver=snd-intel8x0m For candidate modem in: 00:1e.3 0703 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW Primary device ID: 8086:266d Subsystem PCI_id 1179:0001 Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: SIL2f, an LSI/AgereSystems type from Archives: SIL2f Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver: snd-intel8x0m provides Low Level support enabling contact with the modem hardware. For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem software) complementary High Level support is through a Smartlink utility: slmodemd Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD_gcc4.4_alsa1.0.23.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.4_alsa1.0.23.tar.gz and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command: sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem:1 reporting dynamic creation of ports: /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number Read DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. After running above command after you get proper package: $ sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem:1 open up a separate terminal and run $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and hopefully it finds /dev/ttySL0 as the modem port, and with sudo priviledges you may edit the file /etc/wvdial.conf file $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf and add username, phone, ISP password and a line "Carrier Check = no". Upon successfull completing this a dialout should be attempted to ensure that the connection will work. Sound driver may have to be unloaded & reloaded because the modem might become unreponsive $ sudo modprobe -r snd_intel8x0m $ sudo modprobe snd_intel8x0m and try to connect again with $ sudo wvdial Regards, Antonio On Sat, Dec 4, 2010 at 10:02 AM, babu <babusce@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > This is my ModemData.txt. > I send you from Itali Venice. > Many tks for your help > Sonia >
