[speedtouch] Re: strange deconnexion

[waldo]

actually I've found the same problem but its not that there is a previous
instance still running but that the lock file is not getting deleted after
it has died. you can manually clean up /var/run and it will restart

 Hi all,
 
 I got some very new problems with my connection ( long time no problem
) here is a summary of what append:
 
 Mar 21 22:18:37 diablo2 pppoa3[1904]: PPPoA3 version 1_0 started by root
(uid 0)
 Mar 21 22:18:37 diablo2 pppoa3[1904]: A previous instance seems to be
running
 Mar 21 22:18:37 diablo2 pppoa3[1904]: Sending the kill signal to 1855
and
waiting...
 Mar 21 22:18:37 diablo2 pppd[1494]: Using interface ppp0
 Mar 21 22:18:37 diablo2 pppd[1494]: Connect: ppp0 -- /dev/pts/5
 
 Thx for any help.

This can be caused by pppd dieing and restarting (starting a new
instance of pppoa3).It should clean up after itself and start again. Do
a ps ax and see howmany copies of pppoa3 you have still running.

[speedtouch] Re: Request for Microcode Checksums

[waldo]

wouldnt it also be a good idea to publish md5 sums or gnupg sigs for the

software here: http://speedtouch.sourceforge.net/download.php ?

 We've had a fair number of reports of upload errors with various
 microcode's and although I've never had problems myself I thought it
 would be worth while getting a breakdown of what files existed out there
 and to see if there is a correlation between microcode versions or if
 its just USB wierdness.
 
 If your microcode checksum is different from whats listed here then
 please reply with the md5sum of the binary, its filename (mgtmt.o if its
 from a Linux tarball, alcaudsl.sys if its from windows) and the Alcatel
 version number attached to tarball/setup.
