that link goes to speedtouch user space drivers
that also require the firmware.

The main thing you would need is either the bundle

or possibly just 
the kernel module (if the other parts are already in
mandrake).

Or the offical (and GPL'd) version from
www.speedtouch.com
Then drake could (which I think it now does) ask for
the firmware or 
alternativly use the

one. So the speedtouch modems will work out the box
without any firmware 
required.

Just an idea though
