Huawei EC 325 (Reliance) On Compaq Presario Laptop 6000

[satksri]

I have just switched from WinXP, to Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) on a compaq presario 6000 dual core laptop (AMD 64); I am using a USB Huawei data card- EC 325 (my service provider is Reliance). I am unable to connect to internet. can anyone help, please? The problem is last two lines in the output:

"Unable to run /usr/sbin/pppd.

--> Check permissions, or specify a "PPPD Path" option in wvdial.conf."


-------------------------------------------

First I edited my wvdial.conf; this is how it looks now:

Content of /etc/wvdial.conf



[Dialer defaults]

Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
ISDN = off

Modem Type = USB Modem

Baud = 460800

Next when I ran sudo wvdial in terminal window, this is the output I got:
