I have installed the ubuntu on my laptop for its
performance https://desaiyn.tripod.com/laptop/ubuntu_on_thinkpad_R52.html
I am unable to access the internet from this laptop as internal modem is
not working the PCMCIA CDMA wireless card with me is not supported by Linux.
Linux detects the card when inserted but while configuring the modem it hangs
or give the message that modem is in use. Details of PCMCIA card is
800MHz CDMA 1X
Model: MC315
PCMCIA TYPE-II
Wireless Modem
