I have a USB modem, BT Voyager 100, which uses a Globespan chipset, so I've downloaded those onto my Ubuntu (which is Wubi 8.04 installation).
The EciAdsl drivers are installed correctly. I configured my modem using eciadsl-config-text but when it came to installing it, both steps one and two out of 5 failed. So I used the eciadsl-doctor command and the result said:
You are using Linux kernel 2.6.24-16-generic
Support for USB is ok
Preliminary filesystem is missing... trying to mount
mount: unknown filesystem type 'usbdevfs'
Preliminary USB device system: failed to load
However a USB stick connected to the computer is recognised and the information stored on it can be read.
I am very new to Linux so I am sorry if this has an obvious solution.
