Hi guys i am new to Linux and have recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop to dual boot with my Windows 7 my problem is to have Ubuntu recognise my nokia as a modem and be able to connect to the internet but i can't.

I have read the help section but still cant get it right when i go to their mobile broadband the OS does not get me anywhere, has anyone tried to connect with a cellphone as a modem on linux, if yes how did you that i am using MTN as a service provider.

AFAIK you need the Nokia PC Suite/Ovi Suite to use your phone as a modem, so you'll need Windows.....not sure if it works on a Mac.
