Re: mobile broadband

You could try that.

look at /etc/network/interfaces and other files in /etc/network (depends on the mobile device and how it connects)
copy them to your Kubuntu Jaunty
If you are dual booting you can mount the Ubuntu partition using sudo in a terminal and copy the text using an editor such as nano.

Another possibility is trying network-manager (which is gnome, used in Ubuntu Jaunty) instead of the kde-widget.
using

apt-get install network-manager

will take care of removing and installing dependencies for you.
