modem detection

Tue Sep 19 12:07:45 UTC 2006

good day,

  I'm new to ubontu and just installed it on my pc together with win xp. I found it very interesting and excellent os. I've only one problem, i can't connect to the internet through ubuntu. the system can not autodetect the modem. I'm using a Generic soft K56 data fax modem. can any one help me solving this problem or should I install an external modem and which type suitable to purchase.
  thanks
  housam
