Installation
I start with the description i found on the page of jensheidrich.de:
How to get online by Vodafone ?WebSessions Mobile Connect USB Stick K3565-Z on Debian Squeeze:
It’s easy (2009-08-21) by installing the packages from the Betavine Forge Project
- ozerocdoff_0.4-2_i386.deb
- usb-modeswitch_0.9.7_i386.deb
- vodafone-mobile-connect_2.10.01-1_all.deb
or the packages for other architectures
Resolve some dependencies with:
sudo aptitude -f install
Hint: It is not working with the Debian-Packages of ozerocdoff and usb-modeswitch (until now).
Add the allowed users in group dialout. Run it by calling
/usr/bin/vodafone-mobile-connect-card-driver-for-linux
when you want debug output you must start in a shell with
/usr/bin/vodafone-mobile-connect-card-driver-for-linux-debug
Modification for different mobile network
The software only runs directly when you use a Vodafone SIM-card.
When you use another SIM-card then the automated configuration fails.
I opened a bug for this: Bugreport
You get it to run if you insert first a vodafone card or if you modify the configuration files manually.
