Hello, for i386 architecture slmodem issue is pretty solved as I noticed (for example: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/travelmate800.ubuntu.slmodem.html) But I have never seen any consistent FAQ or HOWTO related to this $SUBJECT. There are some "echoes" about chrooting to i386, but installing package (sl-modem-daemon) or compilating (sl-modem-source) is impossible due to the same running 64bit kernel in chroot. Similarly about alsa driver, so I am completely newbie about this. Is there any clue, or FAQ/HOWTO or somebody solved this "reproducible", but I didn´t catch it?
