yeah, I had it installed already. it doesn't work with any real degree of consistency(maybe 1 in every 80 times). Even with the carrier check disabled, in wvdial.conf, wvdial still checks for carrier. I also had stupid mode on as well. Had a lot of resposes, with repeating "No Carrier!!!", and "No Dialtone". I ended up installing Ubuntu 12.04(precise) in place of mint. only change at all is it now doesn't detect the modem at all. was thinking about moving off of Ubuntu(I've had nothing but problems with it after v8.04's support ended) and it's derivatives and just use regular Debian instead. this Motorola SM56 data/fax modem has me pretty frustrated at this point.
