What you should try next is stop flailing about, and think about what you are doing. Did you post a picture? I cant see it - it would be more helpful if you provided the actual (relevant) text. First, read the docs about USB Qubes and USB devices in Qubes. Identify how USB devices are handled on your machine. Plug in a USB device (mouse,stick etc), and see how it is handled. Understand the use of `lsusb` in the sys-usb and `qvm-usb` in dom0.(Hint - read docs and manpages on these commands - `man lsusb`) Then plug the modem in to the same USB port you used before. Use your new found understanding to find out how the device is handled on insertion. If the status is changed to a storage device (where?), then search the web to find out how to change its status to a modem. Come back here once you've found the solution, or if you need help with understanding some detail of what you are doing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
