I just got Clear mobile Wimax.
It uses a Motorola USB stick modem that comes with a Windows driver.
I didn’t see a Linux driver and was wondering if I could expect to see one for openSuse moblin for netbooks?
I some how doubt openSUSE moblin will have. From a quick google I found this ClearWire WiMAX Drivers For MAC, Coming In August., Linux A Little Later! | VOIP IP Telephony, now there is mention of them possibly releasing the source code. I found this which seems quite detailed [PLUG] Mobile broadband experiences?](http://lists.pdxlinux.org/pipermail/plug/2009-October/065348.html) and a little detailed but how relevant it is I can’t say.
But there is definitely intel wimax drivers out there, so from my crude understanding it may be down to the dongle.
if you type
lsusb
in a terminal, it might help identify the ID of the device
and if you copy and paste the results back here

mount -o loop /dev/sr1 /media/Huawei
