Cary Install the Debian dkms package. Then the modem specific code for Debian 2.6.26-13 would be provided by packages: sl-modem-daemon - SmartLink software modem daemon sl-modem-source - SmartLink software modem driver - module building source Start the installs with: # dpkg -i sl-modem*.deb and the dkms support will finish the installation. Separately I will send you a file providing some additional automation support.
