hi All,

I have just purchased the tata's SCX-1080 USB internet data card. When I purchased it I was unaware that this device will not work on latest Linux version.

I have Debian at home, so my question is how can this USB internet data card work on Debian?????

In old version there is wvdial.conf file which contains the require information to work internet on linux. but in newer version of Debian Lenny I cannot see that file.

How to install wvdial in Debain or newer version of Linux without internet connection if there is any way to do that?

Get a .deb file for wvdial or the package that contains it for your distro from office/cybercafe/friend. Use dpkg to install it.
