[Bug 310331] Re: Invalid docs for Internet modem connection (dialup) in 8.10 intrepid
Pl. help me in installing BSNL EVDO USB data card on ubuntu 8.10 which I've installed on my HP pavilion laptop. I've downloaded zte driver from www.ztemt.com. But, unfortunately the ztemt software doesn't detect the modem though it is attached. During installation of the software it gives an error "insmod: error inserting 'ztemt.ko': -1 invalid module format". I've tried the to install the software using "dpkg -i ztemt..... .deb".

Bug description:
Documentation for Internet Modem setup in 8.10 Intrepid Ibex is invalid. There is no Network tab available in System->Administration.
As a result, those of us who are unable to connect to the internet through a DSL or Cable Modem are unable to access the internet. Additionally, previous releases do not allow upgrading with the 8.10 Intrepid Ibex distribution or alternate distribution CDs so I was unable to determine if the Network tab would remain available after upgrading the system.
Installing Gnome-system-tools does not fix the missing tab problem in the operating system. And, the missing tab problem is not isolated to a single distribution. I have done clean installs of all available distributions of 8.10 Intrepid and none provide the necessary System->Administration->Network tab to enable users to configure a modem.
