Hi Chris,

I had the same problem. Someone advised me to ignore Kudzu and just go 
ahead and define a modem using the internet-wizard. Kudzu appears to 
only create /dev/modem (iirc), so if necessary you can define /dev/modem 
yourself. I think the internet configuration wizard (under system-tools) 
  detects the modem automagically.

After defining the modem, Kudzu will recognize the modem too. In my case 
it did anyway.

Guus.
