There are no drivers for Motorola modems under Linux, except for
Fedora kernel 2.6.9-1.667.  Read InfoGeneral.txt about alternative
hardware.

Hi!
In my notebook i have a "Motorola SM56 data fax modem" under windows. In Ubuntu i can't use modem.
This is my modemdata.txt.
Thank to all!

8086:27d8 is a High Definition Audio card,

possibly hosting a soft modem.
 snd-hda-intel may not be competent to read /proc/asound/card0/codec#1

There

may be novel modem chipset information within the /proc/asound/

                              from    Archives:


 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

 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
 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.


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:
        /proc/asound/pcm
