Mr. MarvS,
Regardless to your pointer, I remove the slmodem driver including the dkms,
then d/l-ing hsfmodem from linuxant.
Installing the dkms-hsfmodem, run scanModem again, now my modem at
modemdata.txt change to MOT-66 ????
Please advise ???
Thank you in advance Mr. MarvS.
Cheers,
jfdesign

This is a NEW softmodem case! Please send the output ModemData.txt
to DISCUSS@xxxxxxxxxxxxx , even if further assistance is not needed.
It will enrich the Archive and help others!
-------------------------------------------
Lacking a dsp (digital signal processing) chip, the modem is a software
intensive or "softmodem" type. Its primary controller manages the traffic
with the CPU. But the software needed is specified in the Subsystem.
-----------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd
An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver: snd-via82xx-modem
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.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:
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-via82xx-modem and audio drivers it depends on,
displayed by: lsmod | grep snd_via82xx_modem

is from files:
