In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Alright, I have recently received my requested copy of of the latest release of Ubuntu((8.04 LTS)a Linux distribution) from the UK. And the problem as it always have been known that Linux and Speedtouch 330(THOMSON brand - DSL modem) doesn't seem to work well together. So, since the majority of the members in this group are interested in computers(I think....), I thought a great number of you guys would have some ideas to do with it and maybe even solutions! My question is: Well, OK, I really do want someone to inform me if Ubuntu ever worked with them while they were using DSL modem - speedtouch 330, and if so, is there any specific tutorial that might help me/us? Please do answer the question after an experience you have gone through, and not research or resources amongst the internet. An answer to this question would REALLY be appreciated. Since I gave up 6 months ago, while failing to accomplish connecting to the internet running on Ubuntu(gave me a really hard time). Thanks, Yazan P.S: Yes, I did ask on IRC channels, I did search the forums and even asked them, but no use. So please don't ask me to go search. _________________________________________________________________ Connect to the next generation of MSN Messenger  http://imagine-msn.com/messenger/launch80/default.aspx?locale=en-us&source=wlmailtagline -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I tried getting the sppedtouch to work, but gave up. I think it's a non-starter, like win-modems. I replaced mine with a linksys wireless router, which worked out of the box. --nigel From ngourlay at gmail.com Mon Jun 9 07:52:59 2008 From: ngourlay at gmail.com (Nigel Gourlay) Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2008 17:52:59 +0300 Subject: [Qatar-pm] IDC SMB Roadshow - Wed 11 Jun 2008 Message-ID: <2379a820806090752h48091030r5d218adabc972b5c@mail.gmail.com> From: http://www.qatarliving.com/events/05jun2008/idcs-smb-roadshow-2008 Where: Intercontinental Hotel Doha One of the Most talked about conferences in 2007, IDC's SMB Road show set a new standard for cross industry events.
