 Hmm. I can't be a lot of help since I don't have any real experience setting
up Ubuntu with a modem. All the ones I've done have been via broadband. The
best I can do is point you at this:

 Possibly an alternative means of setting up the modem might work?

 Sincerely,

     If the Bush administration can't sort New Orleans out,
               what are their chances in Iraq?
