Comment 8 for bug 310331

Alright, I just recently got my first taste of Linux since, well forever ago..now there are ways of getting the modem to work.. but.. it seems whenever I get the first steps down, like using scanModem to aquire the correct information about my modem, the rest of the details slowly slip from the walkthrough.. like, wvdial.conf doesn't work correctly, and scanModem doesn't put the Modem folder under /dev. It puts it whereever it is dpkg'd to. Like right now my desktop. Which in itself is a pain in the lower part of my body from which feces emerges... So, I got rid of my Ubuntu 8.10, and got myself a copy of Ubuntu UE 2.. which, by the way still has the same problem. I am pretty sure that most people who aren't having problems with thier Dial-up connections don't bother to read this post.. so it is going to be a stretch to ask.. But if you know how to work with ubuntu using wvdial and scanModem to get a conxant or linmodem to work a post here would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
