I would like to confirm that mattsteven's suggestions worked perfectly for me on an ASUS A8He laptop running Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04) with a Motorola SM56 modem. I installed sl-modem-daemon and sl-modem-source via apt-get and the binary package he suggested. SLMODEMD_DEVICE=hw:0 and a reboot also seemed to bring the modem to life.
