Q. How can I use my USB modem with Linux?

A. Linux does support the USB moems starting from Kernel 2.4.
Do the following:
1. Connect the modem to the computer's USB port or Hub.
2. From the Control Panel run a system configurati tool.
This example is based on Yast from Suse 7.1 but is easely applicable to all other distributions based on kernel 2.4 or higher.
