Learnaseyego Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Ok. I live out in the bonnies and there is no way for me to get true broadband internet. So, I rely on my blackberry. I have just installed Ubuntu on an old computer I had sitting around and I would like to be able to use the internet through my blackberry on ubuntu. Can anyone please help me figure out how to get the Verizon Access Manager to work with Ubuntu. THANKS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could try using Wine if you want that specific piece of software to work, else try plugging the device in and see if the network manager picks it up as a modem. Try the Ubuntu forums for better support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learnaseyego Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 I gave wine a try, but I hit a wall. When I ran it, it said that it must first connect to the internet... but that's my problem in the first place lol..... so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
