OS: Linux Slackware 9.1 (2.4.22)
Modem: Motorolla SM56 Speakerphone PCI II
Driver: official Motorola package for rh9 + www.sm56.tk-gcc3 package

Installation (in Slackware): 
1. rpm2tgz  
2. install package with you favorite package manager (KPackage?)
3. uncompress sm56-gcc3.tar.gz (tar -zxvf sm...)
4. copy the install script from ./sm56-gcc3/sminst.sh to /usr/tmp (that's 
where the rpm defaults to)
5. edit the install script (or just copy this): (NOTE: this script was 
rewritten to suit my needs...)

6. remove any unneccessary files if you wish and try to query your modem
7. upon request I can upload a tarball containing the ingredients
