huh?? What linux distribution do you use? I use redhat 7.3 with their 2.4.18-10 kernel with Intel 82801 chipset - no crashes here while rebooting, I've tried both RedHat 8.0 and Mandrake 9.0 with the exact same result - if the modem is plugged in, it gets hung on Finding Module Dependencies

Hi, This is a micro version of how-to to use the Rotal ADSL modem - it's quite simple: 1. Download the CVS snapshot (the driver is ECI ADSL version 0.6pre3) from http://www.penguin.org.il/~hetz/usb-adsl-cvs.tar.gz 2. untar (tar zxvf usb-ads-cvs.tar.gz) ; cd into the directory and simply do

reboot mandrake 9, open konsole and do tail -f /var/log/messages (as root) - then plug the modem and see what it's writing on the log. As soon as I plug the modem in, Linux hangs. I will try what you suggested though - maybe it will print something before hanging. Alexander Maryanovsky. At

Huh? That makes no sense. If it works, it's probably because it's using one of the generic modules supplied with the kernel. Could you find out which? I'm willing to bet that UML doesn't have anything to do with it in this case. it's uploading some .bin file into the modem, resets the modem,
