    Linux newbie getting serious headache. Have tried to get my Option icon 225 modem to work following the thread on pharscape but cannot find the make command. Is there not an easier way to install the thing? How can I get the network manager to work with it. It recognises the modem but it just keeps getting disconnected. I know there are many threads about this but reading too many really gets your brain in a fuss. Which way is the easiest for a newbie. PS Am not a UK mobile subscriber. AA1 110 linux

    Installed the 3G patch from acer site and now my 3g connection is recognized by connection manager. The properties of the connection seem to have been done automatically and if i ask for it to connect it asks for the pin code. However, it just shows message "connection failed". Any ideas why it fails?
