Re: mandrive
JGuru, I had my Motorola Broadband modem working via USB, from Mandriva 2006, dunno why people say connecting from USB modems is not possible. I can't remember the steps well but surely it's possible with some headaches.
And moving to right section.

Re: mandrive
I have seen your various posts saying this thing. "SuSE detects this...Mandriva does not...SuSE detects that...Mandriva does not". Drop it dude! Linux is just the kernel and if one distro can detect and work with a particular hardware then there is no reason why another equivalent distro cannot do the same. You just need to configure it properly.
Also, you don't need to take any headaches...just don't enter the thread or reply to it. You are not personally liable to reply to every thread and solve the queries. As far as I know, Digit has not employed you to do this and is not paying you either so why take headaches.
Would you stop it please?JGuru said:

@Eddie, I was tellling the truth. You need to see the number of PMs I get everyday!!
Ofcourse, I didn't mean it to hurt anyone. Linux is not just the Kernel. It's also the
Components the run on top the Kernel that makeup the Linux O.S. Some Linux
distros are good at hardware detection. Some are not. That's why some remain in
the Top 5, & some don't.

Your language is too harsh. You have raised 2 objections.1. jguru has not given correct reply. 2. He has responded too many queries.eddie said:
1. Digit forum is for Digit readers. Be they are students, housewives IT Professionals OR doctors, lawyers, clerks, businessmen or agriculturists. All readers are not supposed to be highly trained in computers. So their answers may or may not be correct. Therefore we should not critisize anybody for wrong reply.
2. There is no rule in Digit forum which prevents members from replying more than a prescribed number.
Further I should say that Linux community is famous for helping each other, so we must congratulate jguru that he is sparing his valuable time to help other members.
