PS: A good test to see whether things have improved
is to check whether there is a device entry in
/proc/net/atm/devices

Actually, now I come to think about it some more I suspect
I know what the problem is.  Try doing this (as root):

rmmod speedtch
modprobe speedtch dl_512_first=1

Unplug the modem and plug it back in again.  Does it
work?  What do you get in your system log?

Ciao,

Duncan.

If you never do, that's time to try or you may find a precompiled newer
kernel from your distribution.

There is plenty of how-to over the net.
Just don't take an old one for 2.4 kernel
You could use what your distribution supply to compile a kernel or do that
by hand.

How do I tell what version of the kernel I am using?
Also, is this the only command I need to type or is this just a 
parameter to pass when re-compiling?
(I'm a newbie to the linux environment, I've never compiled a kernel 
before but I do know what it means)
I don't want to make a mess of my system.  Is there an online step by 
step how-to for kernel re-compiling?

Thanks,

So far so good, but you should be getting further messages here.
Most likely this means that the modem initialization failed (the
fact that it doesn't print a message about this was a bug in the
2.6.15 kernel, since fixed).  Try recompiling your kernel with
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG=y, and you should get a lot more info about what
is going on (or use a more recent kernel, 2.6.16 or better).

Ciao,

Duncan.
