Since the first test kernel, slmodemd does not work on the updated kernels.

date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] It's been many years since I've set up a win modem and used one. However, you might try creating the missing file /dev/slamr0 as the error message states and try again the install. Just a thought, no guarantees but creating the file certainly wont hurt anything and can be removed if not successful.

It's a possible bug in Archlinux, someone said that compiling module from sources helps. Try it.

Motorola seems to be only providing source code to some equipment mnaufacturers, who may provide particular compiled Linux drivers with their products. See details in Motorola.txt There was however success with a 2.6.9-1.667 kernel under Fedora Core 3. Search the archives, maybe you can try and make it work. Your best bet is to look for another modem. 2) SM56 modem is not compatible with SmartLink driver. 3) For Underground Desktop 022 ( Linux version 2.6.17-
Folks, Does anyone have Smartlink slamr driver working on a X86_64 system? The AMD 64 machine I have access to only has a 32 bit bridge and the compiling support that Devinder requires is not easily installed. I don't have any personal experience with these Systems. However the modem will have to be run in 32 bit modem, since the pro-compiled binary components of slamr and slmodemd were 32 bit compiled. Anyone have any experience or guidance, I remember Sasha commenting that 32 bit libraires have to be installed for the compilation on an x86_64 system.
