Both are based on Debian, though not Lenny, most hardware will work and the results will usually help. If the problem is a driver that Lenny doesn't have, as is quite likely, then Google may well throw up a solution for an old Ubuntu version which can be used in Lenny. In particular, Liam Green-Hughes' site http://www.greenhughes.com/ is quite useful for mobile broadband issues. That's where I found usb_modeswitch for a Huawei/ZTE dongle before it got into the Ubuntu and now Debian repositories. -- Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
