Within the SLMODEMD-4.1 folderDownloaded from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ asSLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz, there is a slmodemd So while in that folder, copy slmodemd into the a Command PATH folder:$ sudo cp -a slmodemd /usr/sbin/slmodemdMake sure it is executable:$ sudo chmod +x slmodemdThen:$ sudo slmodemd --versionand other commands will work. All else looks OK.
