:: Ubuntu Modem SupportMike unhappily reports that the most current version of Ubuntu has less modem support than previous versions. He thinks Ubuntu may be giving up on modems altogether. For modem support, Ubuntu now refers users to the LinModem project website.The version of Ubuntu Mike installed - I wish I could remember which version - had difficulty finding and using an external hardware modem. Mike needed to access the modem with wvdial.
The version I installed was Ubuntu 6.10 "Edgy Eft", When I tried Ubuntu 6.06 LTS "Dapper Drake" earlier I had no such problem. The network setup app detected and set up my modem just fine.
