I haven't yet had to use the modem on my Wallstreet, so I am not an  
expert. The YDL Web site insists that your modem is recognized in 3.0:

Nevertheless, I searched the Yellow Dog mailing list archives (go to  
the top of any page on the YDL Website, and enter text in the search  
field at the top <http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/>), and you aren't  
going to like the answer I found:

Perhaps a more experienced head on this list will be able to help you.

Could you be more specific? The initial setup of MOL is described at:

I don't recall "platinum" being involved.

Good luck!

Best wishes,
