OK:
(1) Add the following to /etc/modules.conf:
alias char-major-212 slamr
alias char-major-213 slusb
(2) Add the following to /etc/rc.local:
# SmartLink user-space modem driver
/usr/sbin/slmodemd &
Reboot (or just start slmodemd by hand).
The modem device to use in applications (minicom, ppp) is /dev/ttySL0.
That ought to do it.
