I should mention that when I then start wvdial to access the modem, I get a solid lockup and have to do a hard reset. As for kernel 2.6.15, I get an oops when the slamr module (yes, built for 2.6.15 of course) is inserted -- here's a bit of it: Call Trace: [<e0ab4eb8>] SetProp__13ModemInstanceUlUl+0x54/0x17c [slamr] [<c0222027>] class_device_create+0x6d/0x95 [<e09fc2db>] amrmo_pci_probe+0x2db/0x33b [slamr] [<c01d7939>] __pci_device_probe+0x32/0x41 [<c01d7967>] pci_device_probe+0x1f/0x34 [<c022127b>] driver_probe_device+0x32/0x7c [<c022131c>] __driver_attach+0x0/0x36 [<c0221340>] __driver_attach+0x24/0x36 [<c0220b7c>] bus_for_each_dev+0x46/0x6c [<c0221366>] driver_attach+0x14/0x18 [<c022131c>] __driver_attach+0x0/0x36 [<c0220ef8>] bus_add_driver+0x54/0x96 [<c01d7b39>] __pci_register_driver+0x75/0x88 [<e09fc38c>] amrmo_init+0x51/0xaf [slamr] [<c012b422>] sys_init_module+0xb3/0x1ae [<c0102b83>] sysenter_past_esp+0x54/0x75 Code: c1 f9 1f ff 74 24 08 ff 74 24 10 55 ff 74 24 0c 51 52 ff 74 24 1c 56 e8 44 f9 ff ff 89 c6 89 df 83 c4 20 ff 44 24 30 8b 44 24 30 <8a> 00 84 c0 0f 85 48 fc ff ff 3b 74 24 04 77 05 c6 06 00 eb 0e <6>ST7554 USB Modem. usbcore: registered new driver ST7554 USB Modem This happens whether I attempt to load the modem during boot or after. Anyway, my initially reported problem concerned the device node on 2.6.12, and that problem does appear to be triggered if alsa is loaded before slamr. This is an acceptable behavior for the moment, so you can close the report if you like. (I'm not going to pursue this further right now, as I don't need the modem until July.)
