Will,

Since you are setup:
Compiling resources appear complete:
 make utility - /usr/bin/make
 Compiler version 4.1
 kernel_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/build

Do the following steps:
1) through http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/misc/sl-modem-daemon
download the sl-modem-daemon pacakge.  Install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i sl-modem*.deb
This will provide setup automation scripts.

2) From http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/
get the 29_Oct  update of  slmodem-2.9.11-20061021.tar.gz
Under Linux unpacl
$ tar zxf sl*.gz
move into the new folder
$ cd slmodem-2.9.11-20061021
Look around
$ ls

Build the drive with
$ make clean
$ make
$ sudo make install

While not essential, it will be simplest to reboot,
during which modem setup should be automated.
$  sudo  wvdialconf    /etc/wvdial.conf
should find the modem.

Edit in your personal info with:
$ sudo gedit   /etc/wvdial.conf
removing the  <  > symbols, and additng a line:
 Carrier Check  =  no

THen you should be able to dialout with:
$ sudo wvdial

Read the Smartlink.txt  for details
