Hi

I am new in linux, have just installed ubuntu server 9.4 64bit ver and cannot get my usb modem to work. Any suggestions?

What type of modem is it?

Also if you type the following command from the command line

Code:

lsusb

Is it showing up?

Thanks for a quick response,

It's a USB modem mc950d. Works fine in windows but I'd like it to work with Ubuntu srv.
I have done the lsusb command and at least got somewhere here is the output;

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1410:5010 Novatel Wireless
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

I do not know what to do next ...

Cool, looks like it is detected.

A quick Google search turned this up...
