Hi

        I still get this message (once) during start up when modem_run executes. Not 
sure what it means but it doesnt stop me connecting to BTopenworld.

Hello,

being relatively new to Linux I decided to go with the installation of
RedHat9 - all went really well, but now that I am trying to install my ADSL
Speedtouch USB modem connected to BTOpenworld things are a different story.

Trying the walkthrough on:

webconexion.net/speedtouch/index.php

though it did state it was for RedHat8 - I had no success. On rebooting when
I get to ADSL connection I receive this message:

USB_control/bulk_msg: timeout
usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed deev 2 ep 0x85 len 512 ret -110

and being not altogether linux savvy can't really make head or tail of this!

When using lsmod I receive back:

usb_uhci (unused)
usbcore [usbnet hid usb_uhci]     so I am usb_uhci.   I have the USB version
of the speedtouch! Standard with the BTOpenworld ISP home plug 'n play. (BT
even states that it's only compatible with windows - though there are
reportsand source projects on making this work with Linux - and so here I am
plodding along wearily).

I have had the thing whirring away quite the thing now for over a year on ME
and then XP - though have gone and created a mutant hybrid dual-boot XP /
RedHat9 system. - really wanted to try Linux as am fed up with Windows doing
it's own thing!

I knew there would have to be some fiddling to make everything work, but
thismodem is beginning to try me!

Still no further ahead as what I was - and there are only a few specific
routers that I can plug this modem into - but I really don't want to have to
shell out for more hardware, when what I have could work! "Could" being the
word.

Anyone else got any ideas, sympathy. . . .

Thank you for any reply,

Regards,
Yad.
