Yuly, You got the right packages, but they are known to work only on 32 bit linux, not 64 bit :(, I don't know how to advise? I will attach relevant output of scanModem, Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 09:01.0: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Modem: Motorola SM56 Data Fax Modem " CLASS=0703 PCIDEV=1057:3052 SUBSYS=1057:3020 IRQ=16 IDENT=slamr For candidate modem in: 09:01.0 0703 Modem: Motorola SM56 Data Fax Modem Primary device ID: 1057:3052 Support type needed or chipset: slamr 1057:3052 has a Motorola chipset, poorly supported by Motorola itself However Zello discovered that drivers written to support Smartlink modems do support the 1057:3052 chipset!! It sufficed to add 1057:3052 to the list of modem cards recognized by the Smartlink slamr driver. There is a ungrab-winmodem driver used in conjunction with slamr, which must have 1057:3052 similarly added. See messages from Zello: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00846.html http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00848.html and Alvaro Aguirre about the ungrab-winmodem fix: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00990.html For general guidance on ungrab-winmodem + slamr usage, read the DOCs/Smartlink.txt There is a package sl-modem-source providing a source code the modem driver , If can be searched for at http://pacakge.ubuntu.com. After downloading install under Linux with: $ sudo dpkg -i sl*.deb If DKMS support installed, driver updates with kernel updates will be automatically done. The modem is supported by the Smartlink plus the slmodemd helper utility. Read the DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. For 2.6.34 compiling drivers is necessary. As of October 2007 the current packages at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ are the ungrab-winmodem-20070505.tar.gz and slmodem-2.9.11-20080126.tar.gz Writing DOCs/Smartlink.txt ============ end Smartlink section ===================== Does not mention that slamr.ko is only good for 32 bit and not 64 bit linux. It is different from the slusb.ko for 64 bit here: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/slusb64bit.txt You are in unchartered territory, and I would like to advice you, I don't know how. I have experience with martian_modem for some Agere Lucent Winmodems,and with smartlink modems but only in 32 bit :( You have successfully done the following: ? $ su - passwd: # modprobe slamr # modprobe ungrab-winmodem provided you also compiled ungrab-winmodem? and then # slmodemd -c CANADA /dev/slamr0 Hope to get more information as this is unheard of for smartlink modems. Regards, Antonio CC'ing also original maintainer of slmodem code? Sasha K. Maybe there is some new information that will make the modem work in 64 bit?
