Peyton,
scanModem reports that your modem is supported through
SLMODEMD.gcc.4.2-??? drivers:
Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:1f.6:
Modem chipset detected on
NAME="Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM "
CLASS=0703
PCIDEV=8086:24c6
SUBSYS=134d:4c21
IRQ=7
SOFT=8086:24c6.MC97
CodecArchived=SIL21
CodecDiagnosed=SIL21
CodecClass=SIL
IDENT=slmodemd
SLMODEMD_DEVICE=modem:1
Driver=snd-intel8x0m
For candidate modem in: 00:1f.6
0703 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM
Primary device ID: 8086:24c6
Subsystem PCI_id 134d:4c21
Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: SIL21, a Pctel type
from Archives: SIL21
Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd
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_alsa1.0.16.tar.gz having a compiled
slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.16.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.
BUT, the alsa-1.0.16 driver is not there?
only 1.0.17 and newer is there:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz
Since the driver does not exist, your next best bet is to download 4.2 one:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz
without alsa-1.0.???
Try the one above and see if it works in the meantime.
Regards,
Antonio
