The values are right, that's what I use. I have seen such long strings of "magic" values just when my ISP auth server was not responding (down). Ciao, Giacomo.

That's great news. But I guess the ppp libatm.so problem wasn't solved, am I right (for Fedora, I mean)? Cheers, Giacomo.

And the bug relative to this is still targeted at RH8.0 (or was it RH9)? There was a pppd update some time ago, and I hoped they added it, but... I don't think they'll address this, not for the near future. *shrug* Ciao, Giacomo. Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

That FC kernel works flawlessy with the user space driver (1.3 here). The problem is that version of FC2 kernel is the first one which reintroduced the speedtch.ko kernel driver: as usual, if you are using the user space one, one will need to rename or remove the kernel space driver, as they don't like each other too much. Check ML archives for a fix in the setup script of speedtouch-1.3, which adds support for FC2 (and is not totally correct, since that patch addresses just FC2, while it applies wrongly to FC1 too). > I recommend the kernel mode driver, but to be honest there's not much > difference between the two. Just for FC I would recommend the user space one, so you don't need to go through the troublesome process of switching the pppd package, but I understand your point! :) Just my €.02! Ciao, Giacomo.

[speedtouch] ST USB driver and Fedora Core 1
Has anyone tried to use the kernel module coming with FC1? I get stuck after uploading the firmware, probably because plugin /usr/lib/pppd/plugins/pppoatm.so is not there. Any suggestion? Duncan? :) Cheers, Giacomo. Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[speedtouch] Sharing knowledge (ST USB + HP laptop)
I'd like to share my experience with other users of Speedtouch ADSl modems (USB, stingray). Yesterday I was able to finally install a dual boot RH9 on my laptop (HP Pavilion ze4318ea). After reading something like 10 guides on similar setups (different ZEs), I ended up disabling USB Legacy Support in the BIOS, in order to not freeze the installation procedure (all of the guides advise you to do so, to avoid lockups). After successfully installing RH9, the time for installing the speedtouch driver and getting the latest Errata came. Compilation was fine, I hooked up the modem, launched modem_run, flashing lights and... segfault! Going through log messages and using a more verbose output didn't help much. Disabling the access to almost all irqs for the yenta socket (PCMCIA) driver (as suggested in some drivers) didn't help either. Then, I restored the USB Legacy Support in the BIOS and wroom! My modem worked flawlessy, almost the same speed as I get from the desktop system, not a single glitch. And that's using the latest BIOS (1.49) from HP. BTW, modem_run crash logs were about not getting hold of an irq for the connection (IIRC). Dunno if this can be regarded as a bug or as a HW incompatibility. Cheers, Giacomo.
