USB Tethering under linux

I believe it uses Linpus Lite Linux... there really isn't any guides to get it working on Linpus

It probably is a lot of the same stuff, download the driver, compile, and plug it in.

Dear namopereht,

Can you explain that? I am bit new to Kubuntu and I don't get anything from what you written

-What is this related to ?
-What your solution should do?
-Why there are only windows installation files for Tortosie when we do it under Linux ?

Many thanks

birkopf: Sorry, should have clarified. To check out a file using SVN you need to have a SVN client with internet access. I was merely suggesting if you have dual-boot or another windows machine with internet access and no internet access to the linux box, you could install tortoise to the windows box and check out the SVN files there, and transfer the files to your linux box to build.

When you instal the SVN you need to make sure you run the ./clean.sh as root or sudo it. This will install the kernel drivers in the proper place. I rebooted afterwards just to make sure. Then open up PIE on your titan, let it connect and open up your home page, open up "internet sharing", click connect, and then plug your usb cable from your titan to your linux box. NetworkManager should automatically sense the rndis connection and set an ip (no clue how wicd or any other net manager works with it). Presto, internet sharing for linux. I am using it right now on my Kubuntu hardy laptop teathered through my titan. Hope this helps a bit more.

I have HTC Touch (or Elf, depends from naming system)
What is PIE ? Is it (Pocket) Internet Explorer ?

Sorry - I should let it connect to where?
(Internet? Via GPRS? )

If you have been previously writing about Internet Explorer - My Homepage which is offline is coming up, and that's pretty much it.

I tried and it is connecting to my GPRS. In Internet sharing there are two boxes:

PC Connection:
->USB

NetworkConnection:
-> Internet GPRS
-> Internet MMS
-> Internet WAP

Even when I plug in cable - it is still connecting to GPRS.

And BTW: What is Linux Box? My laptop ?

Something is happening because this G icon which is next to signal strength is changing to two arrows informing about some data connection, but nothing except that.

followed the original directions on the first page and nothing happens with ubuntu 8.10. I just upgraded a couple days ago and decided to try this.

Any ideas?

WMWifiRouter.

And with 8.10, it does ad-hoc out of the box and without the command line, so it's super easy cheesy.

[schettj]

dunno about 8.10 - likely not good anymore but something similar should work. 8.04 is rock solid (I'm posting this from a sub shop via a tethered mogul on my ubuntu 8.04 laptop)

For 8.10 looks like it should just work out of the box, you may have actually made it worse trying to follow this guide:

Regarding these instructions, subversion comes installed in Fedora 10, but not usb-mdis-lite and nothing on yum....

sudo apt-get install subversion
svn co https://synce.svn.sourceforge.net/sv...usb-rndis-lite

i bought wmwifirouter when i had the mogul. i mostly used it via usb it would get picked up as auto etho-1. i was running ubuntu at the time now i run mint with my tp2 and still works like a charm.
