Just a bump as a last resort before this other 3G broadband stick runs out of its last 100Mb.

Thanks again for your replies on this gnarly business. I realise that the chances of anyone actually having succeeded in this endeavour with this exact Huawei BM-358 USB stick on 13.04 are slim, and...

Thank you for your prompt reply, Praseodym. Could it be possible that the driver/s I am after for 13.04 are hard to find on google because 13.04 already has them? I admit I was searching and...

I bought a Vividwireless 4G Huawei BM-358 mobile broadband stick from **** Smith's in Fremantle Western Australia on Friday, and haven't had any luck getting it to light up yet.

With my apologies...

Many thanks Hjolli. I've been searching and searching since yesterday and no luck until I found your solution.

LXDE is next on my list after testing out GNOME over Mint,. so thanks mate. It's like having my wife run off with another man, but it means a lot to still have some friends when Ubuntu has left me.

Thanks for pointing that out, mate. 9-)

It might be the way that we use our systems...

Time for me to see about putting the laptop to sleep, so thanks for both suggestions. Tomorrow I'll finish of downloading GNOME for Xubuntu, and test that out. I'll also run up a Live Debian system...

It makes me feel nostalgic. It looks like a reference manual used to look.

Thanks again to both of you. I'm running a Compaq CQ60 laptop (named Lucy) that I bought back in November 2009 and she runs Unity okay after downloading the nVidia 185 drivers from the software...

Thanks mate. If you reckon I can tweak the desktop to roughly the same sort of GNOME that I'm used to with Ubuntu, then I'll get on with it tomorrow morning. I'll take your advice, and thanks for...

I've been in love with Ubuntu for over two years, but still stay with Karmic because of the desktop ever since Lucid. I know well enough where to find the right files in the /usr/share directories...

I'm back in Thailand again now, but Perth is my hometown all my life, and usually based in North Freo now on the weeks I fly home. Email (aseanmorn@yahoo.com) stays the same wherever I am in the...

Thank you.

Choices are great if one choice is meat and one choice is vegetables. Choices between lamb and beef require more time for contemplation. Choices between brussels sprouts and cauliflour require more...

Still on SeaMonkey because it is neat on the desktop in text format and it reminds me of Netscape 4.71.

AND! AND! AND! I know how to set my preferences to check for cookies!

I don't pretend it was the first, buit for historical purposes, early versions of Slackware might be worth looking into. Before Redhat and Debian became popular as far as I knew back then in the...

Typically, it should all be in your /home directory, with /etc fairly easily replaceable with a new install. Don't forget /var/cache/apt/archives for any .deb files you might have added. Keep all...

Esoteric details don't get posted on web-forums.

Theravada Buddhism is all my girlfriend knows, but she makes good sense. I;ll explore Fedora et al for the next six months or so, because Karmic...

I recommended Karmic to my Mother. I have not been able to recommend anything since then to anyone. Okay for me, but if people pass it on, make sure to iron out the bugs before you release it. ...

My girlfriend and i usually communicate in Thai, but she knows that Thai is her native tongue while I'm looking up every adjective in a dictionary, and every now and then she gives me some good...

Taking into account the hours required to save it, I suggest you buy a new one, and treat it kindly.

Can you provide an illustration of a Quetzai?

Fair enough though. That's a winner, but a picture would be educational. Is it a bird? Is it a plane?, or is it renouncing its citizenship...

How about Pedantic Pentadactyl ? but that still leaves me baffled as to the name of the animal when we get to April 2012.

Got one! How about Quaffing Quail? Surely tyhere must be a...

What name for an animal starts with Q?
