  1. Go to http://www.smlink.com
  2. Download the latest Linux driver

cp /path/to/driver/tarball /wherever/you/wantcd /wherever/you/wantedtar -zxvf slmodem-2.9.X.tar.gzcd slmodem-2.9.Xmakesumake installmodprobe slamrslmodemd -c=YOUR COUNTRY'S NAME &

And Happy surfing

Under the scripts directory, You'll find init scripts for some distros, On mandrake:

cp scripts/mandrake/slmodemd /etc/init.dchkconfig --add slmodemdservice slmodemd start

Debian:

cp scripts/debian/slmodemd /etc/init.dupdate-rc.d  slmodemd defaults/etc/init.d/slmodemd start

This driver works for my modem:

0000:00:1f.6 Modem: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03)
