I followed the instructions from Tarin. But now I get the message An
error has occured. Clicking the Detail arrow shows the text connect:
connection refused. What should I do now?

Go to SystemAdministrationNetwork
You'll Probably see an option for Modem, Go to it's property and Configure
the modem, user name and password. Then restart the network by
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
in the terminal

I edited the /etc/wvdial.conf file as per Omi's instruction. Closing the
file does not allow me to use the terminal again. So I saved and quit the
window. Typing wvdial gives the information that the modem is intialized but
then put three lines stating that the configuration file does not specify a
valid phone number, nor a valid username nor a valid password. I tried by
deleting the default signs around these info and also by including them
in quotes, always with the same result. I opened the /etc/wvdial.conf file
and found that the information are there alright. So where lies the problem
?

Keep your modem connected and on.
Go to terminal and run the command sudo wvdialconf
It will detect some things automatically.
Then again type sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf on the shell and a text
editor will open. You have to modify the file according to the following
instruction (NOTE: Change only Phone, Password and Username field, do not
modify any of the other values, your computer will have some other
settings
value then this one):
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 C1 D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = USB Modem
Baud = 460800
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
ISDN = 0
Phone = your_ISP_dialup_number
Password = your_password
Username = your_username
Now save the file and close the window. Type wvdial on shell and you
will be connected.
After you get connected, do not close the terminal and follow that
site's instruction to get a GUI dialer.
Hope it helps

connect to Internet. So is there any workaround ?

via a modem (US Robotics 52 kbps) ? Someone told me that it can't
be done
from Gnome I must use KDE. If that's so, how can I shift to KDE

You can use, GNOME PPP [0] for this purpose. Check this link [1] for
