Felix,
Your modem is a Subsystem under
00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5451 PCI
AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 01)
with SUBSYS_00011179 typically having an AgereSystems softmodem chip
Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack
under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with
command:
sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa -s hw:0,1
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.
VENEZUELA is not among the countries output by
$ slmodemd --countrylist
For YOUR_COUNTRY, you can use USA for initial testing.
But check with your local Linux group through
http://www.linux.org/groups/index.html
to assess what CountryCode they are using
