[ubuntu-za] CAN A VODAPONE 3G K3565 USB STICK BE USED WITH 8.04.02?

[Mark Stockton]

sounds to me like the kernel isn't seeing the modem when plugged in. Try
running dmesg after plugging the modem in and see if there are any messages
similar to the following: 

[  202.552284] USB Serial support registered for GSM modem (1-port)          
[  202.552402] usbcore: registered new interface driver option

Did you install ozerocdoff package?
