Installing the winmodem software

But what really made me possible to connect to the internet using
the modem, was that I finally figured out how to use the slmdm
driver on my toshiba satellite machine. The real secret came
from http://www.columbia.edu/~gk297/toshiba.html
and it is: use the version 2.7.10 (not the latest one). Then, change
a line which is not well configured for toshiba: line 75, of
amrmo_init.c should be:
#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_ICH3 0x24C6

After this change, compile as normal, install, and /dev/modem will work
as if it was real!!! :-)
