(Get the code!)
This appears to be busted pretty bad in Karmic Koala.
I followed the instructions from here. I had both a /dev/ttySL0 and /dev/modem. wvdial was able to communicate with modem, but was always getting NO CARRIER which I now see is bug 237773. Since I was stupid and didn't check for that bug before rebooting, I now no longer have a /dev/ttySL0. (i.e. this bug.)
Is there some faint hope of actually getting this fixed in the Karmic build tree? Judging from these messages it looks like the thing only works on one machine in the world. I don't need to receive faxes, but I do have to send some. I'm trying my SmartLink modem because the Intel536EP package will no longer build under Karmic, "owner" got dropped from a structure in favor of UID and GID.
This really needs to be fixed in Karmic.
