[speedtouch] redhat9 and silver speedtouch330

2004-05-21 Thread lux-integ2

Greetings,

I have a silver speedtouch330 ADSL usb modem and I  installed speedbundle-1.0  
on a machine running Redhat9 as follows:

a) I recompiled the kernel with module-version-control disabled.

b) I booted the recompiled kernel.

c) I decompressed speedbundle-1.0.tar.gz to a directory ~/speedbundle-1.0

d) I copied (on a floppy)  the file alcauadsl.sys from the ~\windows\system32 
directory of a machine with windows on which the the windows speedtouch for 
the silver-speedtouch330 was installed.

e) I renamed  (and copied) the alcauadsl.sys file described in d) above as 
~/speeedbundle-1.0.firmware/firmware.bin.

f) I copied  ~/speedbundle-1.0/ppp_scripts/speedtch-pppoatm to ~/speedtch and 
set the username and  vpi:vci  to 0.38 accordingly (I am in England).

g) I modified the ~/speedbundle-1.0/ppp_scripts/(chap/pap-secrets) files.

h) I removed the installed ppp with 'rpm -e --nodeps ppp'

i) I then ran 'make' then 'make install' and everything compiled and installed 
without a hitch

j) I then linked /etc/ppp/resolv.conf to /etc/resolv.conf

k) I then plugged out the modem (no phone line) and in again and obtained a 
string of messages that the usb bus is scanned.  It kept repeating the 
messages.  It did not return to command prompt.  I returned to command prompt 
with   'ctrl-C'

(m) I then unplugged the modem inserted a live phone line and replugged the 
modem and nothing happened.  

l) At command prompt I typed 'pppd call speedtch' and obtained the following:
plugin pppotam.so loaded
PPPoATM plugin_init
PPPoATM setdevname -remove unwanted options
PPPoATM setdevname -pppoatm  -SUCCESS:0.38
connect (0.38): Resource-temporarily unavailable

I would be grateful for  some help/suggestionss.

Yours sincerely
lux-integ

(ps I am able to connect to this account using a another type of adsl modem on 
a linux-box)

[speedtouch] How is modem_run loading automatically? (Fedora Core 1)

2004-05-21 Thread William M. Quarles
Hi,

I tried sending this out before, but my questions didn't get answered, 
so I'll try again.  I'm sorry if the developers felt like they were 
flamed.  I'd really appreciate your help.

So I need to know this:
1. How are modem_run and pppd automatically being started when I plug in
my modem?  I am bugged being a GNU/Linux user/administrator who has no
clue what a piece of his system is doing behind his back.
2. Why is modem_run being loaded three times when I plug in the modem,
and how can I get it to load only once?.
3. How can I get pppd to load the modem as ppp1 instead of ppp0?
4. PPPd won't let ppp0 (or ppp1, whatever) take priority as being The
Internet Connection over my Ethernet card, which is connected to my
home network, not to the Internet at all.  How can I get the ppp device
to take priority (and if possible, automatically)?

Thanks,
William

[speedtouch] Installing Speedtouch 330 with Mandrake 10.0: where is mgmt.o?

2004-05-21 Thread mike nash

For the past couple of months I've been using a silver Speedtouch 330 USB modem on a 
PC running Windows XP without any problems. A couple of days ago I decided to replace 
Windows with Mandrake Linux 10.0 Community version. When trying to install the modem 
the install procedure told me that I needed to load the Alcatel microcode and that I 
had to supply a file mgmt.o. I couldn't find this file, so I found and downloaded 
the speedtouch-20011007.tar.gz file as the install procedure told me to. Opened it 
up. Still no mgmt.o. Benoit's instructions said that the microcode was in the form of 
two files: mgmt.o and alcaudsl.sys. Although I no longer had a Windows partition on 
the disk, I managed to find the alcaudsl.sys file on the CD-ROM which came with the 
modem. I followed the instructions to load alcaudsl.sys using modem_run and it 
appeared to work; but when I tried to actually access the Internet, it still 
complained that I needed the Alcatel microcode and I had to supply mgm
 t.o. I haven't managed to find this mgmt.o file anywhere. Question 1: where can I get 
hold of it? Question 2: is that all I need to solve the problem, or is there something 
else lurking behind it?

Hi Mike!

Solve your problem(s) by searching the mail-archive by using
'silver' as argument.that should do it.

Ciao
Ok

[speedtouch] Re: How is modem_run loading automatically? (Fedora Core 1)

2004-05-21 Thread Duncan Sands

Hi,

 I tried sending this out before, but my questions didn't get answered,
 so I'll try again.  I'm sorry if the developers felt like they were
 flamed.  I'd really appreciate your help.

I was kind of busy, sorry about that.

 So I need to know this:
 1. How are modem_run and pppd automatically being started when I plug in
 my modem?  I am bugged being a GNU/Linux user/administrator who has no
 clue what a piece of his system is doing behind his back.

This is done by the hotplug subsystem.  Look in /etc/hotplug.
The script usb.agent is run whenever a USB device is plugged in.
USB devices can have their own scripts which go in /etc/hotplug/usb.
The script for the speedtouch modem is /etc/hotplug/usb/speedtch
(or maybe speedtouch).  It launches modem_run and pppd.

 2. Why is modem_run being loaded three times when I plug in the modem,
 and how can I get it to load only once?.

The speedtouch hotplug script is run once for each interface on the modem
(it has three interfaces).  Unfortunately there is no easy way for the script
to tell which interface it is being launched for (this is better with 2.6 kernels).  
So to stop it I would have to do tricks with lock files and all that.  Since
having it run three times is harmless, I decided to just let it run.

 3. How can I get pppd to load the modem as ppp1 instead of ppp0?

Try
pppd call adsl unit 1

 4. PPPd won't let ppp0 (or ppp1, whatever) take priority as being The
 Internet Connection over my Ethernet card, which is connected to my
 home network, not to the Internet at all.  How can I get the ppp device
 to take priority (and if possible, automatically)?

Try the defaultroute pppd option.

Ciao,

Duncan.

2004-05-21 Thread Duncan Sands

Hi,

 k) I then plugged out the modem (no phone line) and in again and obtained a
 string of messages that the usb bus is scanned.  It kept repeating the
 messages.  It did not return to command prompt.  I returned to command
 prompt with   'ctrl-C'

what messages exactly?

 (m) I then unplugged the modem inserted a live phone line and replugged the
 modem and nothing happened.

 l) At command prompt I typed 'pppd call speedtch' and obtained the
 following: plugin pppotam.so loaded
 PPPoATM plugin_init
 PPPoATM setdevname -remove unwanted options
 PPPoATM setdevname -pppoatm  -SUCCESS:0.38
 connect (0.38): Resource-temporarily unavailable

This means that the firmware was not loaded.  The firmware is loaded by
modem_run, supplied in the firmware_loader directory.  A newer version
is needed with a silver modem.  Try replacing the contents of
firmware_loader with the CVS version of the user space driver:
http://speedtouch.sourceforge.net/index.php?/download.en.html
Recompile and reinstall.  You will also need a special firmware file,
see the documentation in the firmware_loader directory.

I hope this helps,

Duncan.

[speedtouch] Re: How is modem_run loading automatically? (Fedora Core 1)

2004-05-21 Thread Duncan Sands

 However, since my system was already a mess from previously trying to
 install from  Benoit Papillault's SpeedTouch USB for *nix SourceForge
 project (I don't know why you say that his project is an alternative:
 half of your software is all of his software!),

But only a small part of it is used: modem_run for uploading the firmware
into the modem.

 then SpeedBundle from
 the Linux-USB project, I have no clue how things got working.  However,
 they did not start working until I had all three piled on top of each
 other, and then I had to do a little trimming to get rid of excess
 copies of modem_run in the path.

Do you have a silver modem?

Duncan.

[speedtouch] USB printer and modem: conflict

2004-05-21 Thread César Catrián
hi

I would like to ask for help about a thing that could
be not likely software dependent.  My USB printer HP
656c does not work with the speedtouch 330 r4 at the
same time.  The printer just does not respond.  The
only thing I have debugged so far is a 'input output
error'.
I know this may be out of topic, but I really need to
know if someone had my problem to get rid off this
problem.

regards

Cesar Catrian C.
