I connected it to USB port using Prolific PL2303 USB- + to-Serial connector. It sat on /dev/ttyUSB0 and worked just perfectly + with GnomePPP & WVDial. After upgrade to 9.10 I tried to dial my ISP and got "/dev/ttyUSB0 Device or resource is busy" (or something very similar to). With SUDO I could make wvdial to dial an ISP and establish connection, but it was not a good solution. Thorough LSOFing gave me that the device is opened by modem-manager process. Attempts to PKILL it failed: it respawned again and again. I've apt-get remove modemmanager, then pkilled it again and got non-root usable modem! But now NM does not auto-discover GSM-phones attached to /dev/ttyACM0 Guys, you did a great job, but do not forget about dialup users, please! Would devteam do something to make modemmanager not capturing USB-modem, if it is not GSM one? + + edit: forgot to mention a package: + modemmanager_0.2.git.20091014t233208.16f3e00-0ubuntu1_i386.deb from + Ubuntu 9.10 official install DVD.
