Garry, Follow Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command: slmodemd -c USA --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. ----------- It may be periodically necessary to unload and reload the driver to reactivate it # modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m # modprobe snd-intel8x0m THen again the # slmodemd -c USA modem:1 MarvS On Tue, Nov 4, 2008 at 3:41 AM, Garry S <teamr54@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hope you can offer some help with this.
