Vodafone Mobile Connect Card driver for Linux!

This one just caught me by surprise today. While reading the Planet Ubuntu Users, I saw a post of Stefano Rivera, talking about this.

Vodafone Mobile Connect Card driver for Linux is a GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA device manager written in Python, licensed under the GPL. Features: Data call handling Send/Receive SMS SIM phone book management Graphical user interface using GTK .

And it was sponsored by Vodafone Spain. This is a great GUI, now, you just have to see how to add support to other 3G cards.

You can see it in action : ScreenShots

Will surfing some blogs and catching up with some news ( It has been a busy week for me ) , I saw a post in Carthik’s Ubuntu Blog, where he talks about a few Font packages in the Ubuntu Repositories that you can install for extra fonts.

Check the POST

To install all the font he talks about just :

$sudo apt-get install ttf-gentium ttf-dustin ttf-georgewilliams ttf-sjfonts sun-java6-fonts ttf-larabie-deco ttf-larabie-straight ttf-larabie-uncommon

See ya later ;)
