Martin,
There is a slight disagreement, my gut feeling is that
SLMODEMD.gcc.4.4-alsa-1.0.20.tar.gz should do the job and not the
slamr module which is loaded. But the diagnostics disagree:

we should see a Modem section here and it is not there? Marv can you
please advice Matin here what to try.
For candidate modem in: 00:11.6
0780 Communication controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. AC'97 Modem Controller
Primary device ID: 1106:3068
Subsystem PCI_id 1631:e004
Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: mc97, from a slamr test.
from Archives: SIL22
Diagnostics and the Archive data DISAGREE
Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd
An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver: snd-via82xx-modem
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_gcc4.4_alsa1.0.20.tar.gz having a compiled
slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.4_alsa1.0.20.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.
Thanks for sending ModemData.txt.
Regards,
Antonio
