It would appear that I have found a solution to the problem! I know there are a few people who have had problems getting 10OE on the net with the Alcatel Speedtouch USB ADSL modem, so this is how I did it!
Before upgrading, go to one of the 10 Community update FTP sites, and get a copy of the Speedtouch Beta RPM (must be this one, the one on the 10CE CD wont work), and the updated PPP and PPP_PPPOA RPM's. Upgrade, and then use RpmDrake to uninstall the Speedtouch, ppp and ppp_pppoa packages that came with 10 Official. Use Software installer to install the 3 new RPM's (just double click the RPM files). Job done. Go into Drakconf, and enter "New Connection", and set up the connection as you normally would. Job done. To test, in a console, as root, go to /usr/share/speedtouch/ and make sure that mgmt.o is still there. If it is, type ./speedtouch.sh start. You should be on the net!
