I just purchased a Novatel USB760 Modem from Verizon. It says on the 
Verizon
website that it is compatable with Linux. But I can't get it to install on
my Dell Mini9 Netbook with Ubuntu.

I installed the Mobile Broadband device just fine on my Windows laptop.  
So
I know the device is working.  It was "plug and play" in Vista, and a 
wizard
did everything.  But I want to use this USB Broadband devive on my Netbook
which has Ubuntu.

I contacted both Dell and Verizon.  Neither was of any help.

Can anyone here give me some help?

Thank you so much!

working :)

Useful information you can give:
  -Ubuntu version
  -what you tried to install it and what happened

Good luck!
