Sean Copy the hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full_k2.6.27_7_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb to your home partition. then when $ ls displays the package, there will be a successful start of $ sudo dpkg -i had*.deb Read other recent messages on installing the hsfmodem package. Some may prove applicable to you. Through Monday, I am traveling with little access.
