Clyde Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ the package SLMODEMD_gcc4.3_alsa1.0.18.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with: $ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.3_alsa1.0.18.tar.gz and read instructions therein. $ slmodemd --countrylist will report what to use for YOUR_COUNTRY with command: sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa hw:0,6 This should report 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.
