hi ive tried quite a few livecds and all seem to have a problem with alcatel usb speedtouch modems which is a pain in the ass as i want to get to know linux but cant cause this problem is in the way

does anyone know what livecd would be ok with the alcatel speedtouch usb modem as im not having much luck

there must be something out there without having to recompile parts which i dont understand how to do anyways

hope someone answers me before xmas as im real #$@#$ off with windows :P

thanks in advance badboy

Kanotix (Bughunter X Fix 2 is the latest) works out-of-the-box with the Speedtouch - there is a KDE menu item for either PPPoATM or PPPoE.

You call someone rude, when you ask such a question? And when there are not only tools like Google available, but a search tool right in the top right corner of this screen? I don't think he was rude, I rather think he was trying to show you how to help yourself.

I think its the uh that made that rude, texttual tones and all that

I guess noob friendly would be:

Using the all powerful force of google your answer is www.kanotix.org

ie be silly

no you dont have to, just throwing that in.

You're right.. you asked your original question nicely, so the curt "search" answer was uncalled for!

Btw, Kanotix may solve your modem needs but I would have a look around the forum first ref the kind of questions and answers, i.e. help, you may expect there.. single line questions and answers seems to be the norm.
