Hi all,
I'm trying to install a SpeedTouch usb modem.
I have some infos.
and at a moment i should write this in console mode:
 apt-get install speedtouch-usb

But.. it doesn't work..
i tryied dpkg -i speedtouch_i386.deb but no way too.
Are apt-get and dpkg fonctions are installed ?
How to add a package if not ???

So i should use this text info ?:
For Debian packages, copy them into the optional directory. Also add the dsl-dpkg.dsl to have the Debian Package Management files restored. Then use the dpkg -i /path_to_deb_package to install under your control. Note: Using deb files will use substantially more of your ramdisk.

Well my link was pointing to "GNU/Linux & Debian Compatibility" to get the dsl-dpkg package first.

But if you already have it, you can do whichever way you'd like.
