hi,
 
attached is the ModemData.txt generated from my computer running Hardy Heron. the modem is a Motorola sm56.

don't know if i read the txt correctly .
i downloaded SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz , unpacked it with Archive Manager , extracting to my home folder.

is this all that's required before modem setup ?

i set up the modem with command : 'sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6'

i use KPPP as a dialer , that's the only one that detects the modem.

when dialing , it'll try attempt after attempt , each time resulting only in a NO CARRIER message.

the modem worked under Gutsy Gibbon with SLMODEMD.gcc4.1 , i upgraded to Heron last night and i couldn't connect with 4.1 which is when i tried the scanmodem.

your help is greatly appreciated . thank you

 The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev

 Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.2.3

 Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
   make utility - /usr/bin/make
   Compiler version 4.2

 However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files,
 in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in  /usr/include/ .
 For martian_modem, additional required packages are needed. The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default.
 Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions.
 In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com
 or comparable Repository for other Linux distros.
 When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed.




If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev

If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$  apt-get update
$  apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed packages.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:

Your choice about getting SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz was correct as scanModem outputs:

If you tried connecting with wvdial all you needed was add the line "Carrier Check = no" and possibly "Stupid Mode = 1", but since you are using KPPP, you will have to check the option Keep dialing till you connect which is equivalent to Carrier Check = no

Actually the option is:

"Automatic redial on NO CARRIER"

I had a little howto for slax when I used KPPP before it worked for me, hope that it does for you.  The old slax howto uses kppp and it is here in case you need to see the option graphically.

with
   0403 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G
      Primary device ID:  8086:27d8
    Subsystem PCI_id  107b:0366
    Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: 0x10573057
your modem setup is OK.

Except after the:
$ sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6
you should open a 2nd console and try detecting the modem with:
$ sudo wvdialconf  /etc/wvdial.conf
if successful, add a line to /etc/wvdial.conf
   Carrier Check = no

The closest equivlanet using KPPP would be to add an X3 into the Init string

ALso you should be able install your former  Gutsy Gibbon linux-image package

Report back presently

thanks for your reply . KPPP just keeps redialing and just keeps giving me the NO CARRIER message.

wvdial does not see the modem . :

[ WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory ]

here's what the terminal returns after i enter  '$ sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6' :

[ SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Aug  3 2008 21:41:20
symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/1' created.
modem `hw:0,6' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/1'
Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination. ]

KPPP is the only dialer that has ttySL0 as a device selection.

Myk,

Please first use:
$ sudo wvdialconf  /etc/wvdial.conf
to detect your modem.   Then

sudo gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf
remove the ; < > symbols and replace with your dialout info.
add a line
Carrier Check =  no

Then try a dialout with:
$ sudo wvdial

Please after activating your modem, open another console and:
$ sudo wvdialconf  /etc/wvdial.conf
to detect your modem.   Then

sudo gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf
remove the ; < > symbols and replace with your dialout info.

Did you leave slmodemd running and open a 2nd console (or TAB) to run the
$ sudo gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf

yes , i kept slmodemd running and opened 2nd console.

okay , i tried wvdial again and it did see the modem . made the changes to the file
and tried dialing . pretty same result as with KPPP ,i get a NO CARRIER . but after
the first dial attempt the terminal runs an endless loop , as shown below.

here's what my wvdial file looks like :

[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = 917185138106
ISDN = 0
Password = *********
New PPPD = yes
Username = **********
Modem = /dev/ttySL0
Baud = 460800
Carrier Check =  no


and here is what happens on the terminal when wvdial dials :


 laptop:~$ sudo wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
ATZ
OK
--> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Sending: ATDT917185138106
--> Waiting for carrier.
ATDT917185138106
--> Timed out while dialing.  Trying again.
--> Sending: ATDT917185138106
--> Waiting for carrier.
NO CARRIER
ATDT917185138106
--> No Carrier!  Trying again.
--> Sending: ATDT917185138106
--> Waiting for carrier.
NO CARRIER
ATDT917185138106
--> No Carrier!  Trying again.
--> Sending: ATDT917185138106
--> Waiting for carrier.
NO CARRIER
ATDT917185138106
--> No Carrier!  Trying again.
--> Sending: ATDT917185138106
--> Waiting for carrier.
NO CARRIER
ATDT917185138106
--> No Carrier!  Trying again.
--> Sending: ATDT917185138106

etc, etc

again , thanks very much for your help.

Myk,

RE Phone = 917185138106
If the 9 is serving to access an outside  line through a switchboard, try:
Phone = 9,,17185138106
each ,  gives a one second pause

Though usually not necessary in the USA, where line voltages are OK,
you can try adding an X3 (dial without dialtone detection):
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0  X3 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
