Just an update on this, I ended up downloading the debian package which works.
http://packages.debian.org/oldstable/misc/sl-modem-daemon The start-stop-daemon line did not work however, so I just plugged in at this spot echo -n "Starting SmartLink Modem driver for: $SLMODEMD_DEVICE" $DAEMON --alsa $OPTS 2>&1 > /var/log/slmodemd & # this line added And commented out the start-stop, maybe someone who knows how that works can figure it out and correct it. Incidentally for anyone searching on this problem for the Inspiron 6400 notebook in particular, you need to set SLMODEMD_DEVICE=hw:0 In your config file /etc/default/sl-modem-daemon With these two changes the modem works correctly now. -- Problem installing sl-modem package module not found https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/92777 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
