Guillermo In principle the following should serve your System------------------------------------------ Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpackunder Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup withcommand: sudo slmodemd -c GERMANY --alsa hw:0,6 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.------------------------- However under the ALSAversion 1.0.13there is a bug in the slmodemd function, for which we are awaiting a fix.It displays during a dialout attempt as: error: period size 48 is not supported by playback (64). Likely you can get this far using the SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz package.But it you get this error, you and several others needing thesnd-hda-intel driver + slmodemd can only await a fix,ORfollow the guidance of InfoGeneral.txt to get alternate modem hardware.
