[sebass <js.bruzzone@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, I will try that, the only thing is that I installed Intrepid since it
has a better 3g usb modeminterface, with Hardy I couldn't connect to
internet with that kind of modem.
(there is also a bug there with the dns server addresses, that doesn't allow
you to
surf the web, each time it uses 11.12.13.14 instead of the one you choose,
so I can't
connect either, wireless at work only (via atheros with hardy))
Thank you and happy hollidays!!

The Eee PC has non-working wireless out of the box. A patch is available from the madwifi website:

I'd like to have working wireless in hardy, without having to patch/compile manually :)
