I have a problem with the SM56 modem which I have still not resolved, but there is a fix for the segmentation fault when you try to insert the module. Try the following website.

probably sm56 wont work because the kernel of u are using is being complied using gcc 3 and sm56 uses gcc 2 so it wont work.
i got this message in the redhat oprating system
