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/slmodemdsysvinit.sh
#chmod u+x slmodemdsysvinit.sh
#./slmodemdsysvinit.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...
