Dear Marvin,
thank you for sending me instructions and for offering possibility to get
support.
I followed all instructions carefully:
1. Downloaded recommended package.
2. Unpacked it.
3. Changed mode for slmodemd (chmod a+x slmodemd)
4. Copied file to sbin/ directory (sudo cp slmodemd /usr/sbin/)
5. Launched daemon. The output was:
dryu@joybook:~$ sudo slmodemd -c RUSSIA --alsa hw:0,6
SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Aug 6 2007 22:02:27
symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/1' created.
modem `hw:0,6' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/1'
Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination.
Assuming that modem configuration is finished, I tried to setup dialup
connection using pppconfig, by supplying it with new modem device.
Autodetection of modem device returned no results, so I typed modem port
manually: /dev/ttySL0 and saved settings for my dialup connection.
Unfortunately, when launching my connection, I get the following output in
terminal window where slmodemd was executed:
error: cannot setup hw params for playback: Invalid argument
Modem didn't show signs of life also.
Is it possible to test my modem to make sure it is properly configured
after slmodemd was launched? Anyway, I would like to express you my
appreciation for possibility to get support for Linux newbies - thank you
very much.
-A

Thanks for sending in the report.
If not already evident the core guidance is
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:
sudo slmodemd -c RUSSIA --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.
Assuming you are in RUSSIA.
Otherwise choose the COUNTRY from the output of
slmodemd --countrylist
