Hi everybody,
I've encoutered some problems when i've try to install the speedtouch usb on
an 440LX based mainboard (debian woody/lnx 2.4.21-rc8-ac1)
sometimes, for some minutes to many weeks, the connexion goes down and this
message appears in my kern.log :
Jun 2 00:12:12 manureva kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:14.2-1
address 2
Jun 2 00:12:13 manureva kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:14.2-1, assigned
address 3
Jun 2 00:12:13 manureva kernel: usb.c: USB device 3 (vend/prod 0x6b9/0x4061)
is not claimed by any active driver.
Jun 2 00:12:13 manureva kernel: usb-uhci.c: uhci_submit_urb: pipesize for
pipe c0038380 is zero
Jun 2 00:12:13 manureva kernel: usbdevfs: usb_submit_urb returned -90
Jun 2 00:12:14 manureva kernel: usb-uhci.c: uhci_submit_urb: pipesize for
pipe c0038380 is zero
Jun 2 00:12:14 manureva kernel: usbdevfs: usb_submit_urb returned -90
Jun 2 00:12:14 manureva kernel: usb-uhci.c: uhci_submit_urb: pipesize for
pipe c0038380 is zero
[...]
after that, it's no use trying to relauch pppd, and the persist option didn't
take any effect in this case. The only way I've found is reloading usb
modules from the kernel and reinitializing the modem... sigh!

I have a second problem which appearing since yesterday (maybe due to an
upgrade of my kernel, I don't understand why...) and i see no other
explications than a bug in pppoa3. When connexion goes down (as my daily
deconnexion, for exemple). I cannot restart pppoa3 and this appears in my
daemon.log :

[...] etc... etc...
but there is no process with pid 31676 on my system, and I can try anything,
reloading usb kernel modules, reinitializing, shooting in the box... when
pppoa3 starts, it try to kill this process... a reboot is necessary to be
reconnected.
is buying an ethernet modem the only way to have a permanent connexion ?
thanks for your help.
Christophe.
