APL
A Motorola modem on a HDA card should be serviceable,
and there is usually more output to ModemData.txt for modems of this type.
Please:
$ cp -a /poc/asound APL
$ tar cfz APL.tgz APL/
and send me the APL.tgz

Hi,I have openSUSE 10.2 distro and a Fujitsu Siemens 1437 laptop. The modem is
a sm56 Motorola softmodem under the HDA Intel chip (ICH6 family) as found by
the scanModem script.I would like to know if there is any way of getting this
modem to work under linux.
Thanks in advance,
