Hello,

try to read http://www.freshmobile.us/2008/12-get-mobile-broadband-on-your-linux-laptop.html

Have an Acer Aspire one with linux linpus, and bought an O2 dongle recently. (Juned 2009)

I updated and downloaded  Mobile Partner, inputing in it, all the info under Profile:  APN  is    m-bb.o2.co.uk

Access Number is   *99#  and Username is   o2bb, password is password, then leave it on Chap. Save these settings and then click the connect button with the dongle in any USB slot and you are away.

Don't forget you need money in the thing before it will surf but it will allow you to navigate to

Don't forget you need money in the thing before it will surf but it will allow you to navigate to.  If it doesnt work then it thinks it is a CD drive or memory stick, just disconect and try again.
