Nick, Please completely uninstall the slamr + ungrabmodem drivers. They cannot serve and may even be blocking a full diagnostic readout by the snd-intel8x0m driver. It is still possible that the mc97 style modem Controller is hosting a Conexant chip, which would return a CXTnumber diagnostic. It so you would need the Linuxant.com software. Again run: $ ./scanModem with the slamr+ungrabmodem unloaded if not completely uninstalled and send it back to the List (not me directly) Do not yet uninstall the sl-modem-daemon package. If snd-intel8x0m does prove to be the right driver, the sl-modem-daemon does the setup for you. For this driver, $ sudo /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon restart may be necessary between successive dialout attempts MarvS scanModem maintainer On Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 6:35 PM, Nick Clark <nick4jesus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Antonio, > > After looking further I realized that I needed to stop the > "sl-modem-daemon service via /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon stop" > > This allowed me to start the slmodemd.
