[sri.narayanan]

I used scanModem to figure out the drivers requierd and used
slmodem-2.9.11-20080126.tar
After the make install command I am getting

[root@localhost ungrab-winmodem-20070505]# modprobe ungrab-winmodem
bash: modprobe: command not found
Error....WHats the reason

The terminal listing is --------------------------------

Odd, sounds like modprobe is not in your env Path.
Try:

# whereis modprobe

Check your ENV:

# env | grep -i ^path

Try running modprobe with the full path.

I got the modprobe thing corrected ... I was in a subdir..changed to root
by su -
Now after /usr/lib/slmodemd is running...
I checked wvdialconfig /etc/wvdial.conf also..its producing the correct
file...
Only thing is wvdial timesout intead of connecting...

please give a listing of a correct /etc/wvdial.conf file...
