> The speedtouch driver is a add-on driver, right?
Yes, the module is custom made to work with the
hotplug scripts and kernel code, a user-end deamon
which maintains the module (also made by Alcatel), and
the modem itself.

The author of the driver has just replied to my email,
suggesting that my problem is one which transcends the
module itself and is a USB problem; because the modem
does not want to accept the addresses it is being
given, the module which the author has made does not
even load yet (according to him). Thankfully, he said
that the depmod unresolved symbols should not be
worried about. Thus, it is only the problem with the
modem being recognised (and wanting to be recognised)
which is to be solved.
This places me into an even more awkward position than
before. Just to recap, these are the responses I
receive in my syslog when I use the init.d/hotplug
script:
