Is your Motorola SM56 modem being detected? I also have a Motorola SM56 modem with which I had tried to connect to net.. I had discussed this matter for a long time in many forums for help, but everything was in vain. It seems that SM56 needs some Software modem, which is not easily supported by linux, and I haven't yet got the answer to how to fix it the hard way. I had reached a dead end on that matter... I too use Ubuntu 9.10. I'm now using net via BSNL broadband, which works superbly in linux, and it is automatically detected in Ubuntu... I'm sorry that I have no further information to help you. But do let me know if you are able to use that modem for connecting to net via Dialup...
