Yes, you have right, the usb modem is mounted on sdb-sde on my PC.
None of them seems to respond when connecting using minicom. I am not
familiar working with modems, but I expect some welcome message when
the modem is initialized.
Looking at /var/log/messages when connecting the modem I get the
following lines:

Dec 28 21:32:25 HPAthlon64 kernel: usb 2-1: USB disconnect, address 2
Dec 28 21:32:32 HPAthlon64 kernel: usb 2-1: new full speed USB device
using ohci_hcd and address 3
Dec 28 21:32:32 HPAthlon64 kernel: usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen
from 1 choice

It seems to me that the modem is not recognized. However, as in Yast,
hardware information, the modem is correctly detected. Any ideas?

I don't think the line is busy since in windows I have no problem to
connect through this modem.

In kppp, the only issue is to change /dev/modem to /dev/sda1, which is
the USB port on my PC where the modem is connected. However, it seems
to me that I am not able to communicate with my modem.

Open Gnome terminal and type command : tail -f /var/log/messages
Plug in the USN modem.
Check the log messages.
U would find the device name to be used, most probably would be /dev/ttyusb0
I am pretty sure its not /dev/sda1 which would be the disk partition 1
