I recently purchased the little Asus Eee PC (701) which is fine for my
purposes. The OS is Xandros Linux.
Now I wish to use this as a platform for a Mobile Modem (mobile
broadband) but I am finding that the phone company dongles run on
Windows or Mac but not on Linux. Is there a way I can upgrade
LVM stands for Logical Volume Manager. As the name stands LVM manages many
volumes logically, mean you can give it a no of volumes and partition them
according to your wish without restricting on size of partition, you can
extend a lvm just by adding new volume to it, suppose you have two 40 gb

I don't know if there already exists a way, but you could put a script
late in the shutdown scripts that touches a file, and a script at boot
time that removes the file and logs whether it exists.
for example. There may be other ways already implemented that somebody
else knows about.

What do you mean by you have on media for this? Either download the
iso from their official mirrors (burn the image and install), or
register and ask for a free cd from shipit.ubuntu.com.

Have you checked for support in the linux kernel? Many devices are
"unsupported" in linux (the manufacturer hasn't/won't write drivers),
but they already exist (The community has written them). I don't know
what a "Mobile Modem" is, is it a type of cell modem? Could you give
us more details?

Thank you, Daniel.
A Mobile Modem is fitted into a USB stick to connect with a mobile phone
service to give access to Broadband. These modems are sold by Vodofone,
T-mobile and others and work with no problem on Windows and Macs but
apparently not without modification on Linux.

I guess I used the wrong wording ... I am wanting to "print" or
redirect the output to a text file. Sorry about the bug in my
wording.

What are you hoping to do with the file, and how much of the
formatting are you trying to preserve?
So far you've been given instructions for formatted printing on a
printer and outputting to several formats, including postscript, dvi,
and plain text. If you are wanting something like PDF,

What do you mean by uncleanly shut down? Have you looked in the

I am wanting to view the file on my screen with a text editor (gedit).
More then likely the issue is with me not understanding the
instructions, then the instructions themselves.

I am very grateful to those who have replied and to those who have
contributed to the thread.
So far as Linux is concerned, I am a complete beginner.
I think the question I am asking is :: is there a patch I can download that
will allow the software in the Eec 701 to respond to the signal receive

Thank you. I will have to check manedit out. I am basically trying
to figure out how to look at man pages outside of the console, and
also make my own notes on the pages, without modifying the original.

This ended up working for me. The command I ended up using was:

I thought that might do it. You are welcome.
The col command is not very well known, but it is perfectly suited to
this purpose. The only thing that col cares about is preserving
characters in the same columns that they were originally written to.
It ignores things like linefeeds and (with the -b
By unclean shutdown i mean, sudden Power failures or Improper
