Re: Hi from Athens Greece

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



 An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem
driver:  
snd-intel8x0m
 provides Low Level support enabling contact with the
modem hardware.
 For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem
software)
 complementary High Level support is through a
Smartlink utility:  
slmodemd

 Download from
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ 
 the package SLMODEMD.gcc3.tar.gz having a compiled
slmodemd. Unpack 
under Linux with:
 	$ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc3.tar.gz
 and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem
is setup with 
command:
 	 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.

Regards,


Antonio
