Johan Verrept (who wrote the driver) posted this to the Linux USB
mailing lists:
--------------
hello,
The SpeedTouch USB Linux Driver is available!
You can obtain it here:
http://www.alcatel.com/consumer/dsl/supuser.htm
The distribution consists of a binary application and an open-source
kernel
module. The application is responsible for firmware download and
some
management stuff and will be maintained and distributed by Alcatel.
The kernel module is full open-source. Maintenance of this module
will be
handled by me. I will set up a development page for the kernel
module asap.
AFAIK Alcatel will link to it.
For all questions, pathces and remarks, please use the mailing
lists.
enjoy,
J.

A few people have reported problems. It is not trivial to apply, you
also need
PPPoATM - see http://www.nothing-on.tv/alcatel.html
