The drivers did install OK on my fresh install last night. Modem works fine.
The trick for me was to be VERY patient.
A couple of observations:
1. The install (post install?) script ran very slowly. I did not time the
process; after having
watched the terminal window for 5-10 minutes I decided to go out to dinner. It
had finished running
by the time I got home. This seems odd- previous versions installed very
quickly indeed.
2. The system still did not find the modem automatically, but does allow
dialing it if I tell it where to look. No big deal but not the same behavior
that I had seen in the drivers I was using for my older version of Linux.
