[speedtouch] Re: Feisty
Hi Duncan The good news here is that I'm now e-mailing you via Linux! I've ended up running the Network Configuration tool by clicking on the icon at the top of the toolbar. I had to enter my details again manually and here I am online. However, as Paul stated, I expected the modem to come onstream automatically at boot up. It still isn't doing this and I have to re-enter the details in the Network Configuration tool each time to start it up again. So I'm not quite 100% there. Could this be something to do with the boot script? I noticed the version Paul entered is different to mine. I've now added debug to the command line as suggested and copied it to \etc\ppp\peers\speedtch to overwrite the original. I couldn't remember how to edit the file itself at that location (or even see its contents). Can you remand how to best to view the contents and edit this file again if necessary? Thanks for your help. Almost there! Roger.

It does. Almost certainly it is pppd that is having problems. How do you run pppd? Try running it in the usual way, but with the word debug added to the command line. Ciao, Duncan.

Hi Ed and Paul Paul: thanks for the link to the UBuntu help site. The set up procedure looks very similar, so I will have to go through them carefully and compare. Ed: I have no file /etc/ppp/peers/usbadslmodem, so this is something else I need to look into, thank you. Whilst switching between desktops, I did notice the message come up on booting stating The Speedtouch Firmware did not load. This seems to be a vital clue; does anyone have any suggestions ? If the firmware doesn't load, no connection can be made at all. Are the files speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin present in /lib/firmware? This is how my /lib/firmware looks: drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-04-15 13:53 2.6.20-15-generic drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-09-24 14:00 2.6.20-16-generic -rwx-- 1 root root991 2007-07-31 20:18 speedtch-1.bin -rwx-- 1 root root 762650 2007-07-31 20:18 speedtch-2.bin Ed Regards and thanks Roger.

I got the thing working before (with help from here) on Dapper Drake, but that was some time ago and I've lost the advice sent to me. I have followed the web instructions, cutting and pasting commands to avoid mistakes. Looking at the chap-secrets and pap-secrets files in etc/ppp, I noticed they have a red cross by them. Looking at the properties, it seems that access is denied to them. Could this be part of the problem and, if so, how is this rectified? If this is normal, can anyone suggest where else to look? Thanks in anticipation! Roger. I think they may be a symlink to file that may be missing on your machine To see if they are symlink, do on a console (-l is L lowercase) ls -l /etc/ppp/*-secrets If the files refered in the link (it could be the same real file for chap-secrets and pap-secrets) does not exist, this command will say that to you cat /etc/ppp/*-secrets If file(s) exist, you will see the content Access to the secret file is usually restricted because it contain the password.

Thanks in anticipation! Roger. I think they may be a symlink to file that may be missing on your machine To see if they are symlink, do on a console (-l is L lowercase) ls -l /etc/ppp/*-secrets If the files refered in the link (it could be the same real file for chap-secrets and pap-secrets) does not exist, this command will say that to you cat /etc/ppp/*-secrets If file(s) exist, you will see the content Access to the secret file is usually restricted because it contain the password. You may have to su root. I don't know for Ubuntu.

Hi Roger, I am trying to get my Speedtouch modem working with the Feisty Fawn version of Ubuntu. I got the thing working before (with help from here) on Dapper Drake, but that was some time ago and I've lost the advice sent to me. I have followed the web instructions, cutting and pasting commands to avoid mistakes. Looking at the chap-secrets and pap-secrets files in etc/ppp, I noticed they have a red cross by them. Looking at the properties, it seems that access is denied to them. Could this be part of the problem and, if so, how is this rectified? If this is normal, can anyone suggest where else to look? you forgot to say what the problem actually is! Were you unable to follow the instructions, or did you follow them all but didn't get an internet connection? Ciao, Duncan.

Hi Gilles and Duncan Thank you for your replies. To answer your question first, Duncan: I followed the instructions but do not have a connection as yet. To answer your question, Gilles, I received the following response: desktop:~$ ls -l /etc/ppp/*-secrets -rw--- 1 root root 38 2007-09-19 23:52 /etc/ppp/chap-secrets -rw--- 1 root root 38 2007-09-19 23:52 /etc/ppp/pap-secrets Does this help at all???

So the red cross may be because fom X, you are not root and not allowed to read the file. As I do not have Ubuntu installed, I don't know if it matter. Anyway when you start the connection, what happen? You could add debug word in your option file to have more details of what happen during connection start. Please send the contents of all the files in /proc/net/atm if /proc/net/atm exist. Gilles Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
