Re: usb modeswitch
Are you absolutely sure you need to use usb-modeswitch by hand? It usually Just Works automatically once you've set up your device in Network Manager. Sometimes, the device will show up as a CD but still work fine as a modem.
Can I confirm that you've at least tried setting up the device in Network Manager and that it doesn't work at all this way? If if it doesn't work, have you tried installing a driver for it?
