I feel the name Ubuntu sounds very degrading for a reasonable OS.
Ubuntu, give me Ubuntu in Maputu
Give me Ubuntu with my phutu
Give me Ubuntu for mafutu
Give Ubuntu for Umlungo
Give Ubuntu for MS Gingluvo

wvdial needs a configuration file ( /etc/wvdial.conf ), below is mine:
To get the modem set up automatically is also easy...
Just go Terminal, sudo wvdialconf and it will set your modem options correctly
then all you have to do is (su for root access) to go Terminal sudo gedit - gedit will open, and then from there you can open your wvdial.conf file - edit your necessary values into there (tel number / username + password and then save and restart dialing works by going terminal type: sudo wvdial
