Mandrake 8.2? Latest version is 8.1?

It would appear to me that you've installed the Alcatel modem management
software, but are trying to use the user-space driver with it (i.e. the one
this list is related to) - naturally this won't work very well!

Fortunately the alcatel mgmt driver does support uninstall, if I recall its
something like "make uninstall" from the directory where you unpacked the
management tool, which will rip out its hotplugging script.

In order to use the modem under Mandrake you need to download and untar the
Alcatel management software, COPY mgmt.o to /usr/share/speedtouch/, update
/usr/share/speedtouch/speedtouch.sh appropriately and run the draknet
wizard.

All the best,
Tim.
