===== Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) diagnostics ===== 
The ALSA packages provide audio support and also drivers for some modems.
ALSA diagnostics are written during bootup to /proc/asound/ folders.

The ALSA verion is 1.0.17
The modem cards detected by "aplay -l"  are: 
card 1: Modem [Intel ICH6 Modem], device 0: Intel ICH - Modem [Intel ICH6 Modem - Modem]

The /proc/asound/pcm file reports:
-----------------------

00-01: Intel ICH - MIC ADC : Intel ICH6 - MIC ADC : capture 1
00-00: Intel ICH : Intel ICH6 : playback 1 : capture 1
01-00: Intel ICH - Modem : Intel ICH6 Modem - Modem : playback 1 : capture 1

about /proc/asound/cards:
------------------------
 0 [ICH6           ]: ICH4 - Intel ICH6
                      Intel ICH6 with ALC250 at irq 17
 1 [Modem          ]: ICH-MODEM - Intel ICH6 Modem

 This is a NEW softmodem case!  Please send the output ModemData.txt 
 to DISCUSS@xxxxxxxxxxxxx to enrich the Archive and help others!
 If further assistance is not needed, please use email Subject:
     New Case Only
 -------------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset:	slmodemd


 Pending fixes to gcc-4.3, temporarily use instead of SLMODEMD.gcc4.3.tar.gz, use
 	SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz

 An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver:  snd-intel8x0m
 provides Low Level support enabling contact with the modem hardware.
 For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem software)
 complementary High Level support is through a Smartlink utility:  slmodemd

 Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ 
 the package SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:
 	$ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz
 and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
 	sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --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.

 Completed candidate modem analyses.

 The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev

 Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.3.2
             and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.3.2


 
 Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
   make utility - /usr/bin/make
   Compiler version 4.3
   linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/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 needed. The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default. 
 Compiling hsfmodem drivers does require linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages, for kernels 2.6.24 and later versions.
 In not included on your install CD, search for them at http://packages.ubuntu.com
 or comparable Repository for other Linux distros.
 When compiling ALSA drivers, the utility "patch" will also be needed.




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 packages.
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

Checking settings of:	/etc/ppp/options
asyncmap 0
noauth
crtscts
lock
hide-password
modem
proxyarp
lcp-echo-interval 30
lcp-echo-failure 4
noipx

In case of a message like:
   Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html

Read Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0 eth1
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

 Don't worry about the following, it is for experts should trouble shooting be necessary.
