CPU=i686,
Welcome to openSUSE 10.2 (i586) - Kernel
Linux version 2.6.18.2-34-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)) #1 SMP Mon Nov 27 11:46:27 UTC 2006
scanModem update of: 2007-20-07
The slmodemd set symbolic link is /dev/ttySL0 -> /dev/ttySL0
Blacklisted modem driver lines in /etc/modprobe* files are:
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:blacklist snd-atiixp-modem
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:blacklist snd-via82xx-modem
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:blacklist snd-intel8x0m
The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) packages providing audio support on your System,
also includes drivers for some modems. High Definition Audio (HDA) cards can themselves host
a softmodem chipset, with both audio+modem supported by a snd-hda-intel driver.
The ALSA diagnostics are written during bootup to /proc/asound/ folders.
Modem not detected though HDA card diagnostics, though not excluding
a possible Conexant modem chip impervious to ALSA diagnostics.
Proceeding through alternative possibilties.
Summary card and chipset information is in:
/proc/asound/cards:
0 [ICH5 ]: ICH4 - Intel ICH5
Intel ICH5 with ALC655 at 0xffeffe00, irq 201
/proc/asound/pcm:
00-04: Intel ICH - IEC958 : Intel ICH5 - IEC958 : playback 1
00-03: Intel ICH - ADC2 : Intel ICH5 - ADC2 : capture 1
00-02: Intel ICH - MIC2 ADC : Intel ICH5 - MIC2 ADC : capture 1
00-01: Intel ICH - MIC ADC : Intel ICH5 - MIC ADC : capture 1
00-00: Intel ICH : Intel ICH5 : playback 1 : capture 1
A copy of /proc/asound had been copied to Modem/ALSAroot.tgz

There is candidate modem software.
For candidate modem in PCI bus: 02:03.0
Class 0703: 10b9:545a Modem: ALi Corporation SmartLink SmartPCI563 56K Modem
Primary PCI_id 10b9:545a
Support type needed or chipset: slamr
The modem is supported by the Smartlink slamr driver
plus the slmodemd helper utility. Read the
Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.
For 2.6.18.2-34-default compiling drivers is necessary. As of October 2007 the current packages at
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ are the
ungrab-winmodem-20070505.tar.gz and slmodem-2.9.11-20070813.tar.gz
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
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.1
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/build
However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files,
in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ .
For martian_modem, additional required packages are libc6-dev (and for Debian/Ubuntu, linux-libc-dev). The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default.
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed pacakage
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
should trouble shooting be necessary.
