No wireless in Debian Sid

[Esteban Monge]

Excelent works great, thanks for the help.

I promise modify a little script for do it through a GUI. In Debian
GNU/Linux don´t have official GUIs for GPRS or WiFi, I found a little script
that lets you connect to GPRS through GUI, I corrected to make it work FSO,
but I do not known make packages of programs, I hope soon to do and I can
tell.

And sorry for my bad english... thanks for the help...

“No habrá manera de desarrollarnos y salir de
la pobreza mientras los pocos negocios
grandes de nuestro medio se entreguen a las
economías foráneas y nosotros nos
quedemos con solo negocios de pobre,
mientras en vez de ser propietarios de nuestro
propio país nos convirtamos en un ejército de
empleados del exterior”
José Figueres Ferrer, 1952.
