It worked fine with Puppy, and I'm told by a forum member that PCLOS detected his 5610 without any hassles but I haven't tried that yet.
Althouhg I know very little about Ubuntu's inner workings, it appears to be related to permissions. I can dial out with the 5610 using sudo wvdial, or by typing "sudo pon", but not "pon". I've set up pppconfig plenty of times using an external serial USR 5686 modem but never came across that problem once the modem was configured. The other weird thing is Gnome-ppp would say "device is busy" until I'd gone online using "sudo pon" or sudo wvdial, then I could disconnect and Gnome-ppp would see the modem. If I shut the PC off and restarted Gnome-ppp was once again unable to find the modem. -- US Robotics 5610 not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517762 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
