Here are the results of the various commands you asked me to execute. Unfortunately I don't have lsusb so I couldn't do lsusb -v... I also cannot access the internet using dial-up, so obviously cannot yum it.
Another problem is that when I go to Add New Software there is an error in detecting packages and I cannot install any packages at all.
But here are the other results:
for dmesg... there are bits in here that describe me disconnecting and connecting my USB modem:

for tail /var/log/messages... shows pretty much the same thing at the end:

and for scanModem, it only detected the internal broken modem; there was no mention of any USB devices.
I haven't tried slmodem-2.9.11 as I suspect I have no gcc and I cannot install anything at present.
Cheers,

Jeff,
This is the way to go. William, please download
scanModem, from here
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanModem.gz
copy it to linux partition and become superuser
$ su -
password: *****
# gunzip scanModem.gz
# chmod +x scanModem
# ./scanModem
post to this list if you can't subscribe to
discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and I can relay your message to
the list. If the slmodemd-2.9.X drivers worked for
you before I do not see why not, the
slmodem-2.9.11-20051101.tar.gz from smartlink
directory in linmodems will not do the job for you.
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/slmodem-2.9.11-20051101.tar.gz
If these are the drivers, be aware that you will need
to apply some patches for it to work with Fedora Core
5, namely, I will refer you to
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-sixth/msg01401.html
where doing as the instructions for each file will
work for Fedora Core 5.
Regards,
Antonio
