Hello Thijs, > I've got some real trouble keeping my speedtouch online (thomson 330, > the purple one). It disconnects at an interval of some hours.
I see USBDEVFS_BULK fails after a long time of inactivity. Not really a disconnection, but the modem is unusable from that point. Currently I am testing an updated pppoa3 which I received from Ok Overbeek. It didn't entirely solve my USBDEVFS_BULK failed issue when using the firmware.bin from the speedtouch website, but I am currently testing it with the latest official firmware from thomson (KQD6P2.eni), which cannot be used with the official (unpatched) beta. I was thinking of releasing a slightly cleaned up version of this patch, and others concerning logging and verbosity plus a spec file via http://home.hetnet.nl/~ottolander/speedtouch/speedtouch.html one of these days. > Second, I would like to know how I can reconnect. Problem is the modem needs to be reset to reload the firmware (at least in my case). This means you either have to unplug the modem or reload usb- uhci. I use the latter, because I have no other USB devices connected. Run rmmod usb-uhci; sleep 1; modprobe usb-uhci; sleep 3; and then rerun modem_run. You might want to kill old pppoa3 instances and remove the lock file as well before rerunning modem_run. Bye, Leonard. -- How clean is a war when you shoot around nukelar waste?
