slamr is completely inappropriate to hardware:
CLASS=0703
NAME="Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM "
PCIDEV=8086:24c6

While we don't have archival information on the pair:
PCIDEV=8086:24c6
SUBSYS=14c0:0012

Under a few other 8086:???? modem controllers,  SUBSYS=14c0:0012 has a
chipset which would be supported by
-------------
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 INDONESIA  --alsa modem:1
 reporting dynamic creation of ports:
       /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N   , with N some number
 Read DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow
through guidance.
------------
plus the snd-intel8x0m  driver.

However your outstanding problem is that during bootup the modem card
was disabled:
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1f.6 disabled

with a consequence there is no modem related line among
the /proc/asound/pcm file reports:
-----------------------
00-04: Intel ICH - IEC958 : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - IEC958 : playback 1
00-03: Intel ICH - ADC2 : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - ADC2 : capture 1
00-02: Intel ICH - MIC2 ADC : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - MIC2 ADC : capture 1
00-01: Intel ICH - MIC ADC : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - MIC ADC : capture 1
00-00: Intel ICH : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 : playback 1 : capture 1

But faking an expected line if all was well, it would be like:
01-00: "Modem: Intel Corporation something.
This disablement must be overcome before the Modem will be controlled
by the CPU & you.

Read the Bootup.txt about things you can try. After each trial & new bootup, do
$ cat  /proc/asound/pcm
If there is a modem line in the output, follow through should work.

Also do
$ dmesg > dmesg.txt
and send it to us.

If you can do Modem diagnostics under Microsoft as  described in SoftModem.txt,
that output would be useful too.
