SuSE - Configure modem in a Toshiba satellite A10


I need some help to configure my modem, i've downloaded the scanmodem and here is the ModemData.txt:


DO use the following line as the email Subject Line, to alert cogent experts:
scanModem,
Welcome to SUSE LINUX 10.0 (i586) - Kernel kernel 2.6.13-15-default
Occassionally reponses are blocked by an Internet Provider mail filters.
So do in a day also check the Archived responses at DISCUSS@linmodems.org
Code updated on: 2006_March_01
------------ -------------- System information ------------------------

Welcome to SUSE LINUX 10.0 (i586) - Kernel
on System with processor: i686
currently under kernel: 2.6.13-15-default
Be sure to read the Ethernet section of Modem/YourModem.txt
A /dev/modem symbolic link is not present
USB modem not detected.


The kernel was assembled with compiler: 4.0.2
with current System compiler GCC=4.0.2

Found make utility.

Checking for kernel-headers needed for compiling.
Kernel-headers supporting compiling are resident:

Modem candidates are at PCI_buses: 00:1f.6

Providing detail for device at 00:1f.6
with vendor-ID:device-ID
----:----
Class 0703: 8086:24c6 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [Generic])
SubSystem 1179:0001 Toshiba America Info Systems: Unknown device 0001
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 11
Checking for IRQ 11 sharing with modem.
XT-PIC ehci_hcd:usb1, yenta, Intel 82801DB-ICH4, eth0


-----PCI_IDs------- --CompilerVer-
Feature List: Primary Subsystem Distr KernelVer kernel default CPU
./scanModem test 8086:24c6 1179:0001 SuSE 2.6.13-15-default 4.0.2 4.0.2 i686
From records, 1179:0001 has soft modem codec type SIL27
The following two Root commands should set up the modem.
modprobe snd-intel8x0m
slmodemd --alsa -c YOUR_COUNTRY modem:1
Get the SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/

The controller: 8086:24c6 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M)1DB ICH4
is capable of supporting soft modem chips from AT LEAST manufacturers:
Broadcom
AgereSystems
Conexant
Intel
Smartlink
The Subsystem PCI id does not itself identify the modem Codec.
Checking for autoloaded ALSA modem drivers

Driver snd-intel8x0m may enable codec acquisition

I've already downloaded the file listed up but I don't know what to do with it.

Any help will be aprecciated!!

Step 1.

Close window with linmodem software in it.

Step 2.

Open yast. You are using suse, it already has all the software available for install and just need to configure it.
