Hello all, Is anyone successfully using the Speedtouch modem under kernel 2.6.5 ?
The reason why I am asking is that I installed SuSE kernel kernel-smp-2.6.5-8.16.i586.rpm and sources using SuSE9. It compiled fine but I can't get me Speedtouch modem to work. Here's an extract from by boot.log Running speedtouch with... start Initializing Acatel's SpeedTouch modem firmware ^G^G^G^G^G^G^G^G^G^G^GStarting modem with /usr/local/sbin/modem_run -v 2 -m -f /usr/local/sbin/firmware.bin...

I am not using the speedbundle. Here an extract of the error messages that I get when I try to compile speedbundle sources that I downloaded via cvs.speedtouch.sourceforge.net ################ ./configure The source for your running kernel is in /lib/modules/2.6.5-James/build/ Error: ppp_scripts/speedtch not found Error: if your ISP uses PPPoATM, then copy ppp_scripts/speedtch-pppoatm to ppp_scripts/speedtch Error: if your ISP uses PPPoE, then copy ppp_scripts/speedtch-pppoe to ppp_scripts/speedtch make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/Install/Speedtouch/speedbundle-1.0> ################ Any clues would be greatly appreciated as I plan on migrating to SuSE9.1 in a couple weeks when it comes out and a OS without a modem is useless.
