    Oh.. OK cool.
    Well I guess in my case installing PyLouie "overrode" the path problem or something?

    This is sweet, does anyone know if this will run on AMD64 Ubuntu Feisty?

    As long as you can find all the necessary dependencies, you will be able to run it on any arch

    You can compile it yourself:

    install libnotify, notification-daemon and python-notify, you will need at least python-dev to install all this.
    Hi

    I downloaded above but still ran into a bit of a snag:

    After installing the Python dependencies, I have got the -rc2 version to run on Feisty. But it can't connect ... complains about the DNS addresses being invalid. Anyone know what the correct settings in the 'Preferences' dialog are for Vodacom South Africa?

    sudo apt-get install build-essential

    that should solve the problem of the compiler

    you can uncheck the DNS checkbutton (how bad it sounds) and receive the DNS from your ISP. Here in Spain sometimes Vodafone will return 10.11.12.13 and 10.11.12.14 as the DNS. That signals that the client should use its own DNS. And thats one of the reasons behind that checkbox.

    Using wvdial directly does give valid DNS addresses, so maybe it isn't necessary to specify them manually. I suspect it is something to do with the 'APN host' setting. By default it is set to 'ac.vodafone.es'; I have tried things like "Vodacom-SA", but that didn't help. What should it be?

    OK - setting static DNS addresses and changing 'APN host' to 'internet' allows it to connect properly. But there's a catch (22) - it won't start unless there's already an internet connection up ... otherwise it gets stuck with the startup progress bar at about 35% with the status showing "Authenticating ...". What needs to authenticate with what? Is this a Python/Twisted authentication, perhaps?

    Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you

    Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PACKAGE_CFLAGS

    See the pkg-config man page for more details.

    Well.. it's working no problem for SMS which is cool..

    But I have not yet managed to get it to connect..

    When I click the "connect" button, nothing happens?

    I also noticed that in the "hint area" at the bottom of the app window next to the signal level it says: 3G FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I guess this is where it should display the network name or something?

    EDIT: I ran "vodafone-mobile-connect-card-driver-for-linux-debug" to see if I could get some output.. this is what I get as soon as I click "connect":

    Hi,

    well it can do much more than sending SMS

    on which distro are you running the software? Debian? The software checks if pppd is setuid, in that case it will just start wvdial, if its not setuid it will try to launch with gksudo. Gksudo is installed by default on Ubuntu/Guadalinex but not in Debian :P. I have to say that the .deb is built for Ubuntu not Debian :P We have to support several distros and this subtle differences are beyond us :P Another option would be to add your user to the dip group.

    The name issue is probably because you are using a Huawei E620 or any other card that returns the network name of the network in its numeric representation. There's a csv file with all the "numeric id - network name" pairs at:
    /usr/share/vodafone-mobile-connect-card-driver-for-linux/resources/extra/networks.csv

    If your net id is not present on that file then I'll be happy to include the info for the next release Another option is that your card responds really strange to the COPS? command. Either way use the -debug shell script to launch the app and copy the AT+COPS? response to see whats going on.
