Re: Benito Flores, USA, kernel 2.6.32-21-generic

Benito,

Since your System is Ubuntu Lucid, it will be simplest if you use the
standard Ubuntu packages.
All you need is the package sl-modem-daemon, available through
searching at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ , which will take you to:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=sl-modem-daemon&searchon=names&suite=lucid&section=all

After download install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i sl*.deb
The installed scripts will try to activate the modem, though the
0x10573055 modem chip is frequently troublesome.

The modem driver support is included in the already installed
snd-hda-intel  driver.
Check for modem detection with:
$ sudo wvdialconf
