As I newcomer to linux ( am an old time dos & windows user ) I would appreciate answers to following quetions re above driver;

1 To what directory do I download the driver prior to unpacking/etc
2 Do I use dpkg with --unpack and then --configure or do I just use -i ie install in one step?
3 To what directory do I install this package?

I have read the HowTo for above I have Ubuntu 7.1 and use a hauwei e220 serial modem in XP

I have read up on Debian basics, dpkg and find myself confused when I try the examples given but don't get the same results.

many thanks
John
