Efectively I ran in 1st Console window:
sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa -s hw:0,1
- Response
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Feb 15 2007
23:08:19
symbolic link /dev/ttySL0' -> /dev/pts/1' created.
modem hw:0,1' created. TTY is /dev/pts/1'
Use /dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for
termination.
Then open a second Console window and ran the test below.
¿ Do I need to load another driver ?
Thanks and Regards
