Dear Johan, I am sorry to hear that you will no longer be maintaining the speedtouch driver. It may have been your first linux kernel driver, and it may have had a few bugs, but it has done good service to me and others. I am willing to try and maintain the driver. While I don't have the competance of many on this list, I do actually have the modem and an adsl line, which is a big advantage. It would be very helpful to have the specs though. I hear that Thomson multimedia bought Alcatel's modem branch. Do you have any contacts there? What do you think the chances are of having the specs released? There is also the little question of that closed source program that keeps up the connection. Any chance of getting hold of the source code? Finally, would it be possible to get write access to your web page http://linux-usb.sourceforge.net/SpeedTouch/ ? All the best, Duncan. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: Order your Holiday Geek Presents Now!
