Jeff, Following the directions below is still OK. The hsfmodem packages have compiling capability, used if there is not a kernel-version match Just choose the most recent hsfmodem*.deb.zip package or the generic package from the prior download page and all should work. MarvS scanModem maintainer ------------------- >From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php download hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full_k2.6.32_24_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip Under Linux unpack with: $ unzip hsfmodem*.zip Then install with: $ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb Subsequently, the modem should be found with $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Edit in your personal information with: $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf and try dialing out with: $ sudo wvdial. See DOCs/Testing.txt for details.
