Eugen, The setup command you should be using is: $ sudo slmodemd -c GERMANY --alsa modem:1 It is worth while checking whether you can do an ordinary ppp0 connection to your Internent Provider Separately I'll send you a package of FAX protocols effective for a related modem using slmodemd and the slamr.ko driver.
