I've run scanModem and it returned this output.
I've read YourSystem.txt and downloaded SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.gz, but I am not
able to proceed.
Can you please help me?
I am running an OpenSUSE 10.2 32 bit with 2.6.18.8-0.5-default i686
kernel on my Ferrari 4005 wlmi notebook.
The modem is identified as a ATI Technologies Inc ATI SB400 - AC'97
Modem Controller (rev 02).
If you want, I may send you the windows drivers, if you think that this
may help.
I know that this is a modem/fax, and by looking at the AGRMDwxp.inf that
comes with the xp drivers, I see that this is an agere modem. The
following is a piece of code taken from the above file:

Lacking a dsp (digital signal processing) chip, the modem is a software
intensive or "softmodem" type. Its primary controller manages the traffic
with the CPU. But the software needed is specified in the Subsystem.
-----------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd
An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver:
provides Low Level support enabling contact with the modem hardware.
For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem software)
complementary High Level support is through a Smartlink utility: slmodemd
Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa
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.
The diagnostic outputs for this softmodem section have their raw information in
folders and text files under /proc/asound/ which you can browse. The information
is from files:
/proc/asound/pcm

Writing Smartlink.txt
============ end Smartlink section =====================
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2
Compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.1
kernel_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-0.5-default/build
If a driver compilation files with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example.
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
$ sudo apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
While some of the files may be on the install CD, others may have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
For Ubunut feisty, additional packages required were:
