Ivan,

Sadly, there is not yet support for this particular AgereSystems Chip
Vendor Id: 0x11c11040
When/if  it becomes available the rest of Antonio's advice to use
SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz will be correct.

I'll improve the scanModem ouput for this case.

Ivan,

Try the compiled SLMODEMD from

 Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
 the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack
under Linux with:
    $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz
 and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with
command:
     slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem: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.

If it does not work/need further help, please report back.

Regards,

Antonio
