Manu,
You get five points for exposing some display bugs I must
in scanModem. But the ALSA diagnostics are unequivocal good news
Get the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz from:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
Read the documentation therein. But briefly the modem wil setup with:
# slmodemd -c AUSTRALIA --alsa hw:0,6
