[speedtouch] Re: cannot connect to internet using SpeedTouch 330 modem on Kubuntu

2005-05-02 Thread F J Brooks

Thanks, Andrew for your prompt response.

Unfortunately, it didn't help as I already have the folder /media/floppy,
but the system doesn't seem to recognize this fact.

This is what happens:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# cp -r /media/floppy/* .   chmod +x firmware-extractor
cp: cannot stat '/media/floppy/*': No such file or directory
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cd /media/floppy
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: /media/floppy# cp -r /media/floppy/* .   chmod +x
firmware-extractor
cp: cannot stat '/media/floppy/*': No such file or directory

As you will have guessed, I'm not a Linux expert and find this apparent
contradiction most frustrating. Am I missing something?

Anything you can do to help would be much appreciated.

Best

Fred

[speedtouch] Re: Fedora Core 3 usb_atm.c problem

2005-05-02 Thread Duncan Sands

Hi James,

 drivers/usb/atm/usb_atm.c: unusable with this kernel!  (see at *** below)
 
 Does this ring any bells with anyone?  I can't find any reference to this as 
 a problem 
 either in your archive, or in Bugzilla, looking for wider possible FC3 issues.

this is a known problem with 64 bits machines.  The problem is that
one of the data structures needs to be small enough to fit in a
socket buffer control buffer.  The control buffer has the same size
on 32 and 64 bit machines, but the data structure gets bigger - too
big!  Anyway, it's fixed in more recent kernels.

All the best,

Duncan.

[speedtouch] Re: Problem with reconnection

2005-05-02 Thread Duncan Sands

Hi Nicolas,

 I installed my USB speedtouch 330 modem as specified by the LFS hint. It
 works OK, I just have a problem with reconnection : my provider (Free.fr,
 for those who know about it) disconnect me every 24h or so (to prevent me
 from making money with my own website, I suppose ?), and each time this
 happens, I get this on my logs :

I'm also with free, but they don't disconnect me every 24 hours.  Where
do you live?

 Apr 30 04:11:16 detritus pppd[23574]: connect(8.35): Address
 already in use 

The previous connection was not closed.  If you look in /proc/net/atm,
you'll probably be able to confirm this.

Ciao,

D.

Are you sure 4.48 is correct.  I never saw 4.something before.

Try doing

sudo mount /media/floppy

first.

 but the system doesn't seem to recognize this fact.

Mounting doesn't create the folder - it puts something in it (the
contents of your floppy in this case).  Did you try the command
(you may need to put sudo in front)?  Also, better if you are
not in the /media/floppy directory when you issue the command.

Ciao,

He is 'non dégroupé' and is disconnected because the use of FT framework.
You don't use pppd in 'dégroupé' mode like you.

[speedtouch] Re: Speedtouch modem 330 runs, but still no connection under SuSE9.3

2005-05-02 Thread evaessen

Holy smoke!
For two days I overlooked the fact that 4.48 is terribly wrong. It should
be 8.48! I do not doubt that for the rest of eternity I would have
continued to overlook it if not someone had pointed it out to me.
I should have known it because the number is correctly given in

/etc/ppp/peers/ppp0

under my Mandrake 10.1 installation.
I corrected it in

/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-dsl0

under my SuSE9.3 installation and now I am online in SuSE too.

Thanks!

[speedtouch] Re: Fedora Core 3 usb_atm.c problem

2005-05-02 Thread a25347

Thanks.  Problems upgrading the kernel now...

rpm -Uvh kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3.x86_64 replaces my existing kernel  
grub.conf options; and then fails to boot successfully. (*)  So a reinstall 
of my original FC3 distribution later, ...

can you advise 
- how to have rpm add the new kernel as an altnernative option
- whether the kernel-doc  kernel-smp rpms matter, and should be 
installed before the basic kernel rpm (they don't seem to be required)
- or whether I'd be better to forget rpm for this, and get 2.6.11.8 directly 
from www.kernel.org?

Thanks very much again.

James


(*) I had already successfully updated to:

udev-039-10.FC3.7.x86_64
policycoreutils-1.18.1-2.10.x86_64
selinux-policy-targeted-1.17.30-2.96.noarch

all from the FC3/upgrades/3/x86_64 tree.
