There's a small CD (ISO-something) file system that's mounted as an external drive on the little buggers. That Linux automounts these file systems is probably a bug, as users have no use for the stuff on them. The driver is already in the kernel, and there are ways to connect to the modems without knowing any /dev paths, my favourite is the one here: https://forge.vodafonebetavine.net/projects/vodafonemobilec/ This has a problem: the dependency hell. I have a 2.4 kernel and I have to update a lot of packages. So, I decieded to use a Ubuntu Live CD, install Ubuntu in the hard disk and configure Wvdial (it has detected the modem as /dev/ttyUSB0 ; in NetworkManager, it does not appeared). I would prefer click in the first desktop icon (not in the second virtual DVD icon ) and then would open NetworkManager or other default application, to configure the modem and connection (in a similar way to other visual operating systems).
