See http://linmodems.technion.ac.il and http://www.linmodems.org/ and http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...52/#post899321 and http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/sm56_download.htm and http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/lin...edora-1-a.html and http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...a-sm56-375400/ and please don't mark threads "urgent": a good thread title describes the problem you need help with. Also please fill in your distribution and version in your LQ profile and list hardware info and what you've tried already.

Can you explain what you've tried to get it to work so far (and what problems you've encountered)?

BTW, what kind of interface does this modem have (USB, PCI, RS-232, etc.) and what distro are you running?



EDIT: Sorry, unSpawn... hadn't seen your post.

As others have said, this isn't urgent for anyone but you. And if it WAS urgent, you'd have posted details about version/distro of Linux, exact kind of hardware, what you've tried, etc.

And really, do you expect us to believe that you've searched for TWO YEARS, and can't find an answer, when Google returns thousands, and this site has many too??
