I seem to have made a lot of progress yesterday but, disappointingly, haven't yet achieved my objective. For convenience, in describing my adventures yesterday, I shall use the abbreviations 'TLK' for 'The Linux Kernel SpeedTouch Driver for Ubuntu Hoary Hedgehog', and 'ST330.zip' for the 'SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip' folder. I'm sure that you've put your finger on the problem. I misunderstood (was misled by??) the statement in TLK that: 'That zip [ST330.zip] also holds the ZZZL_3.012 firmware for the (usually silver) revision 4 modem' and therefore assumed that I would only need to put the ZZZL-3.012 onto my floppy. So, per your suggestion, I copied the whole ST330.zip from my (WinXP) downloads directory onto the floppy, and thence into my home folder and, at the same time, to avoid confusion, deleted the zzzl_3.012 file there. I then tried the 'unzip' command (unzip SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip && ./firmware-extractor ZZZL_3.012), and got the same response as before: unzip: cannot find or open SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip, SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip.zip or SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip.ZIP I then unzipped the ST330.zip file in my home folder (using the 'extract' command in Konqueror), and then (per TLK), copied the zzzl_3.012 file into /lib/hotplug/firmware. Then, still following TLK, I put the line: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' * 'password' (using my actual username and password) into Kate, saved it in my home folder as 'secrets', and copied it into /etc/ppp by the command: sudo install -m 600 secrets /etc/ppp/chap-secrets && sudo install -m 600 secrets /etc/ppp/pap-secrets As my ISP uses PPPoA, I opened Kate again and copied into it: lcp-echo-interval 10 lcp-echo-failure 3 noipdefault defaultroute user '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' noauth noaccomp nopcomp noccp novj holdoff 4 persist maxfail 25 updetach usepeerdns plugin pppoatm.so 0.00 Again substituting my actual '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and VP/VC values (0 and 38). Then (still following TLK) saved this to my home folder as 'speedtch' and copied it to /etc/ppp/peers with the command: sudo install -m 600 speedtch /etc/ppp/peers Then made a Bootscript (per TLK), saved '#!/bin/bash'...etc in my home folder as 'dial', then used the command: sudo install -m 744 dial /etc/init.d && sudo ln -s ../init.d/dial /etc/rc2.d/S95dial && sudo ln -s ppp/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf to install it in /etc/init.d... etc (per TLK) Then rebooted and... - big anticlimax :-( - I was NOT online - couldn't get anywhere with Konqueror. I should emphasise that, at each stage, I looked up the relevant file/folder to ensure that the appropriate file had been copied there. What have I done wrong - or what have I left undone?
