Subject: slmodem-alsa on asus W6A

hello,
i try to work my modem in my laptop.

un use fedora core 6 and i install slmodem-alsa-2.9.11-1.lvn5.i386.rpm

my kernel is 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6

when i start slmodem i have this message :
[root@localhost sysconfig]# /etc/init.d/slmodemd restart
Shutting SmartLink modem daemon:                           [ÉCHOUÉ]

my config on slmodemd is : 

# Country you are in
# Possible values can be gotten from calling slmodemd --countrylist
# e.g. COUNTRY=USA or COUNTRY=GERMANY
COUNTRY="FRANCE"
SLMODEMD_DEVICE="--alsa modem:0"

The instructions to load slmodem are as follows
 and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
      slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa hw:0,? 
->   slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa hw:0,? 
Try hw:0,N where N starts from 1 to 9 and one of them should do the trick.  

Otherwise, remove the rpm slmodem-alsa-2.9.11-1.lvn5.i386.rpm and try to do what scanModem says 
"

     $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz
 and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
      slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa hw:0,? 
 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.

i join the modemdata.txt

i don't know what i must do.

thanks for your help.

 === Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
 === Next deducing cogent software ===

ALSAversion 1.0.12
8086:2668 is a High Definition Audio card, possibly hosting a soft modem.


The VendorID 0x10573055 softmodem chip is in principle supported by the snd-hda-intel driver 
included within the ALSA audio+modem driver set.  However recognition of 0x10573055 first begins with ALSA version 1.0.13. There are instructions for upgrading snd-hda-intel and its
dependent driver set at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-seventh/msg00282.html
The ? in the device designation in hw:0,? will be manifest after the driver update.
Typically ? is in the range of 0-6 . 

 A candidate driver could not be identified.

 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 base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev

 Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.1
             and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.1

 Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!

 If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

 Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
 should trouble shooting be necessary.
