Also sorry for adding needs-packaging I probably shouldn't add that right because those packages are already in ubuntu archives they just need updating. <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-modeswitch/+bug/1296090">https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-modeswitch/+bug/1296090</a> I used the PPA of Debian usb-modeswitch maintainer and it didn't cause any troubles. My modem was already supported by the old packages available in Ubuntu repos. Below is a copy of text from Bug Description: The upstream released new versions of usb-modeswitch and usb-modeswitch-data on January 28th and 29th 2014. <a href="http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/">http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/</a> This version supports many more usb modems than the one currently available in Trusty besides those packages haven't been updated for a very, very long time in Ubuntu. The packages are already available in Debian Testing and Unstable. <a href="https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=usb-modeswitch">https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=usb-modeswitch</a> Besides that the maintainer of the USB_ModeSwitch Debian package has set up a PPA providing this most recent release. <a href="https://launchpad.net/%7Eodyx/+archive/usb-modeswitch">https://launchpad.net/~odyx/+archive/usb-modeswitch</a> NOTE: there is also a similar bug report from users that want the latest usb-modeswitch on Trusty. <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-modeswitch/+bug/1270499">https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-modeswitch/+bug/1270499</a> </div> </body> </html>
