Hello Folks,
Maybe somebody here can help me...
I just installed kubuntu alongside my xp, and man, am I impressed! This is computing!! I only use the desktop windows machine for music in my my workroom and for feeding internet to my router. Normally, I wouldn't touch xp, but hey.... I much prefer macs. However, if I can fix this one problem I have, I'll probably get rid of osx as well. Again, I'm very impressed.
So, the question: my vodafone mobile connect box (huawei e220) doesn't work. I've read pretty much every page on every forum about this, I've downloaded packages and tried installing, but nothing works.
Q: Is the file: "vodafone-mobile-connect-card-driver-for-linux_1.99.17_i386.deb" my best choice? If so, do I need python for it to work? Terminal tells me it installs and that I can open it in the internet menu, but it doesn't show up there.
Q: Is that package an automatic installer, or do I have to do terminal work to get it working? If terminal is required, I will stop trying. Sorry guys, but being a mac user I'm simply used to everything automatic, and I just don't have the time to "work" to get my computer to work. I played with the osx terminal for a few months a few years ago, and I remember liking it, but having to learn and study quite a lot. Can't afford the time.
Anybody able to help, please?
Thanks
MC
