I am attempting to get an Alcatel USB Speedtouch DSL modem running on my 
slackware system.  It's a fresh install from slackware-current, so all 
drivers, kernel modules, etc are up to date. (kernel ver 2.4.23)

Based on docs found at;
http://linux-usb.sourceforge.net/SpeedTouch/docs/howto.html
I recompiled the stock kernel to include;

Code Maturity Level Options
        Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers   Y

Networking Options
        Packet Socket                                           Y
        Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) (EXPERIMENTAL)         Y

Network device support
        PPP (point-to-point protocol) support                   y
        PPP Deflate compression                                 y
        PPP over ATM                                            y

USB support
        Preliminary USB device filesystem                       y
        UHCI (Intel PIIX4, VIA, ...) support                    m
        OHCI (Compaq, iMacs, OPTi, SiS, ALi, ...) support       m

Note, this only represents options that were changed from the stock kernel.

I then configured, compiled, and installed (via checkinstall) the 
speedbundle-1.0;
http://linux-usb.sourceforge.net/SpeedTouch/

When I plug the modem in, I get (from /var/log/messages);
Dec 20 05:10:21 vlad kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-2, assigned address 
2
Dec 20 05:10:29 vlad usb.agent[12915]: ... no modules for USB product 
6b9/4061/0
Dec 20 05:10:29 vlad usb.agent[12906]: ... no modules for USB product 
6b9/4061/0
Dec 20 05:10:29 vlad usb.agent[12908]: ... no modules for USB product 
6b9/4061/0

And in /var/log/syslog;
Dec 20 05:10:21 vlad kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x6b9/0x4061) is 
not claimed by any active driver.

Am I correct in thinking that this is telling me that the hotplugging stuff is 
not working?

What is my next step in getting this thing working?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Mark
