There's no /dev/ttyUSB0. Just the usual /dev/tty and the same with 0-63 on the end and /dev/ttyS0 through S3. I tried all of them and all the possible USB devices in that directory. >> I'm trying to communicate with this modem. I've used Minicom, with the >> device I mentioned above.

Just plug the modem, open a console, type "dmesg > | grep -i usb" and put the result here (for very long logs, upload the > result to "www.pastebin.com" or any service like that) :-) As you and Ron suggested. It's the last device. No errors, and remember it showed up in /proc/bus/usb/devices and looked okay (I numbered the lines in the output from grep): 235:[ 1.849802] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbfs 236:[ 1.849824] usbcore: registered new interface driver hub 237:[ 1.849848] usbcore: registered new device driver usb 238:[ 1.853655] USB Universal Host Controller Interface driver v3.0 243:[ 1.854354] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1 245:[ 1.854438] usb usb1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice 246:[ 1.854455] hub 1-0:1.0: USB hub found 251:[ 1.956563] usb usb1: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0001 252:[ 1.956566] usb usb1: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 253:[ 1.956567] usb usb1: Product: UHCI Host Controller 254:[ 1.956569] usb usb1: Manufacturer: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 uhci_hcd 255:[ 1.956570] usb usb1: SerialNumber: 0000:00:1d.0 260:[ 1.956976] ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.7: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 2 263:[ 1.968481] ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.7: USB 2.0 started, EHCI 1.00, driver 10 Dec 2004 264:[ 1.968538] usb usb2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice 265:[ 1.968555] hub 2-0:1.0: USB hub found 269:[ 2.072362] usb usb2: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0002 270:[ 2.072364] usb usb2: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 271:[ 2.072366] usb usb2: Product: EHCI Host Controller 272:[ 2.072367] usb usb2: Manufacturer: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 ehci_hcd 273:[ 2.072369] usb usb2: SerialNumber: 0000:00:1d.7 281:[ 2.196626] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 282:[ 2.347904] usb 1-1: not running at top speed; connect to a high speed hub 283:[ 2.352211] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice 285:[ 2.485485] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=047e, idProduct=2892 286:[ 2.485488] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 287:[ 2.485490] usb 1-1: Product: Agere USB2.0 V.92 SoftModem 288:[ 2.485491] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: Agere Systems Thanks!
