I just realized - there's probably no point in installing Jaunty to more
HDD's from the same CD that didn't produce wvdial in the first place, is
there?

I had Mint Gloria running on the test PC.  Downloaded the Gloria .iso 3
or 4 days ago.  It's based on Jaunty, correct?  Here's the output:

pa...@patti-desktop ~ $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
[sudo] password for patti: 
sudo: wvdialconf: command not found
pa...@patti-desktop ~ $ sudo apt-get install wvdial

The PC wasn't connected to the internet (*$&#...@!! dial-up) so I didn't bother 
going any further.

I also had Qimo (a kid's desktop based on Xubuntu) installed to another
spare HDD, so swapped drives and fired up Qimo, then logged out of the
kid's desktop and into the "adult" Xubuntu desktop.  The wvdialconf
command worked fine.  wvdial leapt into action, looking for a modem.
