Eric 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 MEXICO --alsa modem:1 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 modem driver is snd-intel8x0m which should autoload on your System. Check with: $ lsmod | grep 8x0m if not autoloaded, load with: $ modprobe snd-intel8x0m MarvS scanModem maintainer On 11/6/07, Dada Ajaya <ajaydada@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello > > My country is most often Mexico, but I travel a lot to other countries... > > I tried reading the scanModem output files, but its pretty heavy.
