Hello David, Funny things happened. Since the OpenSuSE 10.2 DVD that I got from a magazine and with which (as said) I could not get the firmware loaded at boot time or at hotplug, I downloaded an openSuSE 10.2 iso from http://software.opensuse.org/. That downloaded version was installed on my laptop, I copied the firmware speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin in /lib/firmware and the ADSL line went up! When looking at the directory tree, I found that in directory
/lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/usb the subdirectory atm is present, where it was not present when I tried the magazine DVD. That same magazine DVD however, when installed on my desktop, succeeded in getting the ADSL line up. As far as I can guess, the magazine DVD, when installed on my laptop, gets confused a bit.
