F8-x86_64 on the Acer Ferrari 3400LMi
later from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/.
4. Unpack and install the daemon:
# tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz
# cd SLMODEMD.gcc4.2
# install -m 755 slmodemd /usr/sbin/slmodemd
5. Verify that the SmartLink driver is able to find and configure an interface
for the modem:
# slmodemd --country=SWEDEN --alsa --nortpriority
symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/5' created.
modem `modem:1' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/5'
Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination.
You may see a complete list of recognized countries by:
# slmodemd --countrylist
6. For convenience I want the modem driver configured as a service that is
started by the Sys V init system. However, the scripts/slmodemd file
shipped with the package needs to be modified a bit in order to accomplish
this. You will find my modified version in Appendix D.
7. Download and add this script as a service to the Sys V system:
# wget http://ferrari.databa.se/3400/f8/slmodemd-sysv-init.sh
# chmod u+x slmodemd-sysv-init.sh
# ./slmodemd-sysv-init.sh install
8. Now edit your configuration options in /etc/sysconfig/slmodemd:
# A list of all supported country names can be retrieved
# by calling "slmodemd --countrylist" from the shell prompt.
SLMODEMD_COUNTRY="SWEDEN"
# No additional device needed for ALSA mode
SLMODEMD_DEVICE=
# If set to yes the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
# subsystem is used to make your modem working.
USE_ALSA="yes"
# Other options, see slmodemd --help for details
SLMODEMD_OPTS="--nortpriority"
9. Verify that the new service starts correctly:
# service slmodemd start
Starting SmartLink Modem driver: [ OK ]
# service slmodemd status
slmodemd (pid 8356) is running...
