    You asked for an expert and you got me instead!
    Open a terminal and type:
    Code:
    lsusb
    This will list the usb devices on your system, so you can see if it was recognized.

    Go to System->Administration->Network.
    Click Unlock and give your password.
    Your 3G HwaWei model E169 should appear there. Give the right configuration, as you have in Vista and it should work.
