I have a Toshiba Satellite A105-S4004 laptop. ALSA uses the snd-hda-intel module. This give me both the audio and modem. **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC861 Analog [ALC861 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 6: Si3054 Modem [Si3054 Modem] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 I can use the modem part using the slmodemd-alsa package from Liva. The problem I am running into is trying to hear call progress on the modem. I do not have a mixer setting for it. I do have a Caller ID and Off-hook switch in the mixer. I have not figured out what the Caller ID switch does, but the Off-hook switch controls the modem to phone line connection. I may need to pass something to the driver when loading it to specify more ports... I have done a Google search, and read the ALSA documentation, but I am missing something. I suspect that there is a way to use the Si3054 modem like I am using the ALC861 Analog audio, and do things like build an answering machine or speaker phone in software, and probably monitor call progress as well, but I am not finding the right documentation. Does anyone know of a good site to find this information? TIA Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
