If you buy a dongle for your laptop, I have been told they are just as slow. My friend can not be connected in any other way when home as she lives in a bedsit.

Some people at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1349626&page=34 can help you with tips about crosscompiling for ARM 926 processor. Perhaps you also can be of help to them as they try to get Linux running on a VIA technologies arm 926 processor,perhaps similar to yours (unfortunately there is a whole family of 926 processors).Sincerely soz Hello Tony
