The speedtch driver offended me by needing a userspace tool 'modem_run' to load its firmware and -- worse -- to monitor the line state as a dÃmon too.
So I tried to convert it to use request_firmware() and monitor the line
for itself. The results are below -- but it doesn't actually work.
Sending the firmware boot block times out, whereas when modem_run does
the same thing it works fine.
For what it's worth, I once had to deal with those evil modems and linux for my parents (yes, I got my parents using linux).
I had a **significantly** easier time with the userspace driver than with the kernelspace driver...
