Roger, The REMOVE may have stopped at the failure, so also do: $ sudo apt-get remove sl-modem-daemon $ sudo apt-get remove sl-modem-source just to be certain, before a reboot and further testing. Concerning serial support compiled into the kernel, you can display it with: $ grep SERIAL /boot/config-$(uname -r) | grep -v USB $ ls /boot/vm* will list aternate boot kernels on your System. Again if necessary, it was worth reinstalling and testing under the last kernel that worked. You can search such packages out at http://packages.ubuntu.com, choose (say) Oneric as the distribution, and search with "linux-image" or look at the linux-image-* choices within: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/admin/ MarvS On Wed, Feb 13, 2013 at 2:05 AM, Roger Davis <rogerdavis@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > roger@roger-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get remove sl-modem-daemon sl-modem-source sl-modem-dkms > [sudo] password for roger: > Reading package lists...

Also often called "Hardware Modem". The processing is done all within the modem itself, and not the computer. These modems have the DPU & MCU built into the hardware so you don't have the computer worry about these tasks. These are the best types of modems. You can also purchase internal versions of these modems in PCI or PCIe format, but they are a rare find as few manufacturers make these.

This is exactly the opposite, a FULL hardware modem, even including it's own serial port. It's basically a full external modem on a card with it's own serial port built in.
