Instructions to unsubscribe from this list at the end of the message - --------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't know about the USB version of the modem, but the Home and Pro versions should work under Mandrake 8.2. The Home modem gave me trouble and wouldn't work under various configurations, so I upgraded it to Pro as instructed at http://snow.prohosting.com/maltadsl. You could switch to a Pro modem from Datastream but I think it costs a bit more. I had no problems converting my Home to Pro, but it can harm your modem or even render it useless, so try at your own risk :)
David PS both the Home and Pro versions use a network card so you'll need a free PCI slot and a NIC card if you do not have one installed already. - --- Keith Vassallo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Instructions to unsubscribe from this list at the > end of the message > - --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Hey people, > > Since my Siemens Santis USB modem doesn't work on > Linux, i've decided to > chang it to an Alcatel Speedtouch USB.
