Guys,
I've this modem in two notebooks, its an agere, but not the same as
the supported by agrsm-alpha.
I've got NO CARRIER with slmodemd -c BRAZIL --alsa hw:0,6
can you help me?
thanks,
Pablo

The softmodem chip 0x11c11040 is not yet supported under Linux.
Code must be developed by manufacture LSI Inc.

It will enrich the Archive and help others!
-------------------------------------------
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: snd-hda-intel
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-1.0.13.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD-1.0.13.tar.gz
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --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.

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.3
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.22-9-generic
Compressed files at: /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.22.tar.bz2 /usr/src/ndiswrapper-source.tar.bz2
For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 may be needed to support driver compiling
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:
build-essential curl debhelper dpkg-dev g++ g++-4.1 gettext git-core gitk
html2text intltool-debian kernel-package kernel-wedge libc6-dev
libcurl3-gnutls libdigest-sha1-perl liberror-perl libstdc++6-4.1-dev
