This is not 'and' but 'or'. In replacement, you can use too firmware.bin on the dowload page of the user mode driver or or KQD6P2.eni from Thomson site > I haven't yet successfully located the mgmt.o file and would love to know > where it is. mgmt.o is old and has no more interest. <snip> > 2. Does anyone know if we have to reconfigure and recompile the kernel? It depend with wich distribution you start or what kernel configuration you use. The kernel driver is include in 2.4.22 and later. <big snip> > > I just received a new SpeedTouch 330 on warrenty (and to my supprise > > it's silver -- could this be an updated version?).

You can see the revision with cat /proc/bus/usb/devices The REV_0400 is new on the V3.0 Thomson Speedtouch usb windows driver and may use a different firmware named ZZZLP2.eni (you will find it after installing the V3.0 driver on Program Files\Thomson\Speedtouch usb\bin\sachu3) It's may be the isdn flavour of the 330 modem but it's only a simple idea in my head, I know nothing. %Avens.ADSL%=alcaudsl.Install,USB\VID_06b9&PID_4061&REV_0000 ;Alcatel ADSL adapter %Avens.ADSL.ISDN%=alcaudsl.Install,USB\VID_06b9&PID_4061&REV_0001 ;Alcatel ADSL adapter (ISDN) %Avens.ADSL.330%=alcaudsl.Install,USB\VID_06b9&PID_4061&REV_0200 ;Alcatel ADSL adapter 330 %Avens.ADSL.330%=alcaudsl.Install,USB\VID_06b9&PID_4061&REV_0400 ;Alcatel ADSL adapter 330 (SACHU3) %Avens.ADSL.COMBO%=alcaudsl.Install,USB\VID_06b9&PID_4061&REV_0300 ;Alcatel ADSL adapter COMBO Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se d�sinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
