Hi, I've been successfully using the user-mode speedtouch driver for around 2 years. I've started to see some line stability issues, and thought it worth biting the bullet and moving over to the kernel driver.
I download speedtouch bundle 1.0, and have built the 2.4.22 kernel with the required options as per http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/docs/howto.html (was 2.4.20) The builds' went fine, kernel up and running I've also removed the old user-mode driver entried from hotplug config with /etc/hotplug/usb now containing only [EMAIL PROTECTED] usb]# ls old speedtch [EMAIL PROTECTED] usb]# ls -la total 16 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Nov 20 22:52 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Nov 20 22:52 .. drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Nov 20 22:31 old -rwx------ 1 root root 160 Nov 20 22:49 speedtch [EMAIL PROTECTED] usb]# cat speedtch #!/bin/bash case $ACTION in add) if /usr/sbin/modem_run -k -f /usr/lib/speedtouch/firmware.bin ; then sleep 5 /usr/sbin/pppd call speedtch fi ;; esac Firmware is from the KQD6_R204.zip (previously used latest windows 2.x drivers alcaudsl.sys) ....... However it doesn't work... basically the line syncs fine, but PPP fails to establish a connection/IP address These are some segments from my files - can anyone spot the error: Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: Mounted devfs on /dev Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: usb-uhci.c: $Revision: 1.275 $ time 19:20:11 No v 20 2003 Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: usb-uhci.c: High bandwidth mode enabled Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:01.2 Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: usb-uhci.c: USB UHCI at I/O 0x8400, IRQ 11 Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: usb-uhci.c: Detected 2 ports Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus num ber 1 Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: hub.c: USB hub found Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: hub.c: 2 ports detected Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: usb-uhci.c: v1.275:USB Universal Host Controlle r Interface driver Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:01.2-1, assigned addre ss 2 Nov 21 00:26:59 planetf1 kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x6b9/0x4061) is not claimed by any active driver.
