I've been using the Alcatel speedtouch modem over Linux for a couple of 
years now. The unix tools and documentation available have grown since I 
started. Do a search in sf.net for 'alcatel' for a complete list. The 
first result - 'Speedtouch USB for *nix' is the package you will need. 
It has an excellent howto in the doc-linux directory.

all the best
