|    Cannot get my 3G Wireless internet conne    |

      From: Daniel47@teranews.com              On this HP 6730b Laptop, I multi-boot Win7/MD2009.1/MD2010.1/MD2012/MG2       and have my Home in a separate mount (SD8) so that all the linux's can       use it!              Back on 16 Apr (my time), I started a thread called "Inode that were       part of a corrupted orphan linked list found", and from those       discussions, I fixed the problem and then I figured I'd re-install my       MD2009 system, without touching my other installations or my Home set-up.              I'm guessing I've done something wrong (see below) because, previously,       to connect to the internet I'd run Network Centre and select my 3G       Wireless connection then I'd open a terminal and run, as user, a script       written by my ISP to actually make the connection. Since I fixed the       previously mentioned problem, to run my ISP's script I've had to SU in       the terminal to be able to run the script.              *Current situation* When I re-installed MD2009, I had set it up so that       I got the little screen to select a User and enter a password, but I       think I just hit enter (or may have selected the User but I didn't enter       the password, I think), I then went into MCC and stopped the need to       select User and enter a password.              By not entering User name and Password, am I effectively now logged in       as a "Guest" user?? And if so, is there a simple way to get me back as       User, or do I re-install system again??              (I have held off on fixing this (using my Win7 installation, instead) as       I waited for MG3 to be released in a day or two, but now that it's       release has been delayed to 18th May, I figured I'd better try to fix my       MD2009!!)              Thanks for any assistance.              Daniel              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
