each of your "patches or drivers or packages" should have a README or INSTALL assocated with them. that should describe how to install each package.
the site you got them from should also have this documentation.
from the looks of what info you have provided.
slmodem2.9.1.tar.gz:
you need to gunzip and untar this file. I can only guess that it will also have the documentation once you get that far.
as far as the other package.
I would start with the readme and do just that. read it.

dh_installdocs
DH_INSTALLDOCS(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLDOCS(1)
NAME
dh_installdocs - install documentation into package build directories
SYNOPSIS
dh_installdocs [debhelperoptions] [-A] [-Xitem] [file...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installdocs is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing documentation into usr/share/doc/package in package build
directories.
FILES
debian/package.docs
List documentation files to be installed into package.
debian/copyright
The copyright file is installed into all packages, unless a more specific copyright file is available.
debian/package.copyright
debian/package.README.Debian
debian/package.TODO
Each of these files is automatically installed if present for a package.
debian/README.Debian
debian/TODO
These files are installed into the first binary package listed in debian/control.
Note that README.debian files are also installed as README.Debian, and TODO files will be installed as TODO.Debian in non-native
packages.
debian/package.doc-base
Installed as doc-base control files. Note that the doc-id will be determined from the Document: entry in the doc-base control file in
question.
debian/package.doc-base.*
If your package needs to register more than one document, you need multiple doc-base files, and can name them like this.
OPTIONS
-A, --all
Install all files specified by command line parameters in ALL packages acted on.
-Xitem, --exclude=item
Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from being installed. Note that this includes doc-base files.
--link-doc=package
Make the documentation directory of all packages acted on be a symlink to the documentation directory of package. This has no effect
when acting on package itself, or if the documentation directory to be created already exists when dh_installdocs is run. To comply
with policy, package must be a binary package that comes from the same source package.
debhelper will try to avoid installing files into linked documentation directories that would cause conflicts with the linked package.
The -A option will have no effect on packages with linked documentation directories, and copyright, changelog, README.Debian, and TODO
files will not be installed.
(An older method to accomplish the same thing, which is still supported, is to make the documentation directory of a package be a
dangling symlink, before calling dh_installdocs.)
file ...
Install these files as documentation into the first package acted on. (Or in all packages if -A is specified).
EXAMPLES
This is an example of a debian/package.docs file:
README
TODO
debian/notes-for-maintainers.txt
docs/manual.txt
docs/manual.pdf
docs/manual-html/
NOTES
Note that dh_installdocs will happily copy entire directory hierarchies if you ask it to (similar to cp -a). If it is asked to install a
directory, it will install the complete contents of the directory.
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
