Asus eee pc

[pietb]

Hi All

I bought an Asus eee pc (Linux)to use when traveling and doing quotes on site.

But I cannot get the Asus to connect via my Sony Ericson/Vodacom.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I have no idea of what to do - even with the instructions!

LOL ... there must be a script to do it. I'm to lazy to do a search for it.

I assume you want to use your phone as a modem, possibly 3G connectivity?

Wvdial.conf. il post the link tomorrow.

Two of my colleagues have them - one the smaller screen and one the bigger screen. The phone integration would be the same as on any other PC with linux on.

My bad. I see the link that joelus posted uses wvdial.

I compiled my own how to for using phones as GPRS modems in Ubuntu, unfortunately I lost it when my HDD crashed. I also can't remember how to do it off by heart anymore.
