Gaetano, scanModem reports that your modem is supported throught slamr+ungrabwinmodem. Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 01:02.0: Modem chipset detected on NAME="Modem: Motorola SM56 Data Fax Modem " CLASS=0703 PCIDEV=1057:3052 SUBSYS=1057:3020 IRQ=17 IDENT=slamr For candidate modem in: 01:02.0 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 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 3.5.0-34-generic 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 ===================== follow the advice provided here: For general guidance on ungrab-winmodem + slamr usage, read the DOCs/Smartlink.txt 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. I can't remember the commands but you could look for a package sl-modem-source and apt-get it and it will configure things for you. For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list: Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition, they can be installed alltogether with: $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb But you need to block the slmodemd+alsa components as they may get in the way : There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe* files Potentially useful modem drivers now loaded are: snd_atiixp_modem snd_via82xx_modem snd_intel8x0m snd_hda_intel Hopefully Marv can send you the proper command to get the sl-modem-source deb installed easily.
