Simone,
Your modem
---------------
Class 0703: 1039:7013 Modem: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Modem Controller
Primary PCI_id 1039:7013
Subsystem PCI_id 1071:7522
Softmodem codec or Vendor from diagnostics: SIL21, a Pctel type.
from Archives: SIL21, a Pctel type.

has a PCtel chipset.
It should in principle be supported by:
------------------
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 ITALY --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.
------------------
However problems are expected due to:
--- Bootup diagnositcs for card in PCI slot 00:01.6 ----
[17179573.368000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:01.6[C] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11
[17179573.368000] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:01.6 disabled
The PCI slot 00:01.6 of the modem card may be disabled early in
a bootup process, but then enabled later. If modem drivers load
but the modem is not responsive, read Bootup.txt about possible fixes.
Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
if help is needed.

can you help me?
Thanks
Only plain text email is forwarded by the DISCUSS@xxxxxxxxxxxxx List Server.
Do use the following as the email Subject Line:

This will alert cogent experts, and distinguish cases in the Archives.
YourCountry will enable Country Code guidance.

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:
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

The diagnostic outputs for this softmodem section have their raw information in
folders and text files under /proc/asound/ which you can browse. The information
is from files:

Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
