Ahmed, The sl-modem-daemon is FINE for the Smartlink chip modems and the AC'97 modem family. The issue is whether the daemon script is uniformly clever enough on all HDA host systems to correctly parse the port specification. It. On host systems we have encountered, the port has (I recall) been one of hw:0,0 , hw:0,1 or hw:0,6 Please do incorporate anything from that diagnostic section of my scanModem section into /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon that might improve the daemon script's parsing. There was also one case where the User system had two different audio cards. The scanModem diagnostics were not adequate in that case, and I had to use a copy of the /proc/asound to figure out the port. Now that Ankur's modem is working, it would be fine to reinstall the sl-modem-daemon package, with specification in /etc/default/sl-modem-daemon: COUNTRY=INDIA PORT=hw:0,6 (Ankur, I'm not under Linux now, and my syntax may not be correct, but it will be obvious as you read the file.) Thus the modem would indeed be automatically setup during boot, and the manual slmodemd setup command would not be necessary.
