where do i put modem drivers?

I found drivers for my modem on the net and it said to put them in " /lib/modules/kernal-version/misc " but there is no "misc" folder after my kernal-version folder. Should I just create a folder called "misc" and place my drivers there?

Yes, then type:

# depmod -a

To check if everything goes fine ...
