Hello all, I've just installed FC2 and Ruaudel FrÃdÃric's rpms. I am not using a PPPoATM connection as I presume the bundle is directioned to. All worked smoothly but one thing, which i was expecting but wanted the confirmation nevertheless. When using the speedtouch kernel driver one must use br2684ctl instead of pppoa3, right? When I tried running it the output that appeared was just "tap0" but no interface was created.
Because the firmware is now handled by hotplug, I just grabbed the br2684ctl utility and ran it. I needed to load the following modules: 'br2684' and 'pppoe'. I've also loaded 'tun' but this was for pppoa3 utility. I have a script for starting speedtouch PPPoE connections, and I'm using a patched (by me) br2684ctl utility. Here is the reason of the patch: http://s1x.homelinux.net/content.php?id=34 Also i would like to know, if, from now on, speedtouch.sf.net drivers will add support for loading the firmware in an automated way regarding if the system is using userland or kernel driver like it's currently doing. If so this will ease the work of my configuration script (http://s1x.homelinux.net/gpppoe-conf.php) for speedtouch on PPPoE connections. A little out of subject note to Ruaudel, have you ever tried running NVidia drivers with the kernel you built? I have and surprisingly it freezes when the server starts, any ideas on why this is happening? I've been browsing google on why the _bundled_ kernel does not work, and that's because of 4KSTACK enabled in the kernel. Did you enable it in your kernel? Thank you developers for your great work on speedtouch drivers and thank you Ruaudel for your RPM's :) Tiago Cogumbreiro Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
