Acer Aspire One Linux + O2 dongle help please?

Just picked up a Tesco Acer Aspire One and it's sitting happily updating at the moment.
I have an O2 usb dongle that my old XP laptop used to connect to the net when I'm out and about but is it possible to use it with the Linux netbook?
If so...how? I'm assuming different drivers etc will be needed but I've no idea what to look for, where to look, or how to go about it.
Any suggestions please?

If it's a Linux one (Linpus Lite), I've only found details of using the '3' and Virgin Mobile dongles (drivers for Hauwei 3G on the Aspire support page http://www.acer.com/aspireone/aspireone_8_9/support/files/connect.html ).0
