Andreas SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz was prepared by a volunteer who evidently used an earlier version of the slmodem soucer code without the error 64 patch. Would you please $ sudo mv /usr/sbin/slmodemd /usr/sbin/slmodemd.4.2 and try using the slmodemd from the SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz which others are using successfully For it to work in your 64 bit environment, you need to install the 32 bit libasound2 package. Then just do a normal boot on your System, with expectation/hope that 32 bit slmodemd with 32 bit libasound2 calls will be able to support the kernel version matched 64 bit snd-hda-intel driver. Within slusb64bit.txt at http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/ you can read about a similar usage for the USB slusb driver on a 64 bit system.
