[ubuntu-in] Newbie with Ubuntu Linux 6.06 (Brijesh)

[Brijesh]

Hi,
My thanks and appreciation to Priyank Khamitkar and Rajasekar Yeruva for 
their valaubale suggestions, i have installed Ubuntu 6.06 on my pc and also 
Tata Indicom LSP 340e telephone for internet connection .( Priyank , yes , 
installer did ask  me for abt 2 gb of contiguous space for installation but 
i used gparted for maual resizing and it worked like a charm.)
Took a rookie in linux like me sometime to figure out using the nano and vi 
editors but its finally done.
Have run scanModem to identity my modem chipset and will try to get the 
drivers to configure my pci pctel hsp56 modem tonite.
Thanks
Brijesh
