From: jaykumar hs jaykumarhs@gmail.com Subject: [Fsf-friends] Why internet data cards are not available for laptops which work on GNU/Linux? To: fsf-friends@mm.gnu.org.in Date: Wednesday, 11 November, 2009, 3:17 PM Hi ,
My friend Dr. Chatterjee is using Debian on his HP laptop and is in search of intenet data card which supports GNU/Linux. But service providers Reliance, and Tata Indicom intimated that their datacards donot support GNU/Linux.
BSNL's customer care has informed that its datacards which support GNU/Linux are out of stock.
Can some one help us on this issue?
Regards Jaykumar
