Thank you very much for your attention. I don't know what's going wrong:
here is a copy of messages.
I digit first:
$ sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0m
A message appears on the right-bottom which tells that a modem has been
detected; then I digit:
$ sudo slmodemd --alsa -c ITALY hw:1
...and this message appears:
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Mar 13 2006 18:27:33
symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/1' created.
modem `hw:1' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/1'
Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination.
... then I run pppconfig
berni@berni:~$ sudo pppconfig
... and by hand I put "/dev/pts/1" as modem device; then I run pon:
berni@berni:~$ pon
...and the answer is:
/usr/sbin/pppd: In file /etc/ppp/peers/provider: unrecognized option
'/dev/pts/1'
...then I run wvdial in order to try something else different:
berni@berni:~$ wvdial
...the answer is:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.55
--> Cannot open /dev/ttySL0: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/ttySL0: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/ttySL0: No such file or directory
berni@berni:~$
Thanks - Maurizio.

Maurizio,
Since what you have to do is so clearly written in ModemData.txt:
BEGIN QUOTE
Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack
under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with
command:
sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem:1
reporting dynamic creation of ports:
/dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number
Read Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.
Already loaded into the kernel is snd-intel8x0m and audio drivers it
depends on,
displayed by: lsmod | grep snd_intel8x0m
END QUOTE,
including the remark that you even do not need to care for module
snd-intel8x0m because it is already loaded,
I would be grateful to you if you could specify what went wrong in
applying these instructions.
Thanks - Jacques
