If the firmware doesn't load, no connection can be made at all. Are the files speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin present in /lib/firmware? This is how my /lib/firmware looks: drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-04-15 13:53 2.6.20-15-generic drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-09-24 14:00 2.6.20-16-generic -rwx------ 1 root root 991 2007-07-31 20:18 speedtch-1.bin -rwx------ 1 root root 762650 2007-07-31 20:18 speedtch-2.bin Ed > > Regards and thanks > > Roger. > > >>From: "Ed Vaessen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>Reply-To: speedtouch@ml.free.fr >>To: speedtouch@ml.free.fr >>Subject: [speedtouch] Re: Feisty >>Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2007 14:12:40 +0200 (CEST) >> >> >>It seems that your line is up.
