Hi, >From speedtouch-1.3.1, modem_run locks a semaphore when it's run. So, if the first run fails, you won't be able to easily run modem_run again. Duncan posted a tip to remove the semaphore: get the id from /proc/sysvipc/sem, and try to remove it with "ipcrm sem id". It would be nice to have a modem_run option to remove the semaphore, and to remove it if the firmware loading fails. Have you set the correct loader and firmware paths in speedtouch.conf ? If they're wrong, then modem_run will fail the first time and will be locked. You can add some debug options in the hotplug script (probably /etc/hotplug/usb/speedtouch) to see what happens, for example : exec > /dev/tty1 (or exec > /some-writable-file) set -x In Mandrakelinux, we got some other problems at boot because the usb controller triggers speedtch modules loading very early, and the hotplug script failed because it tried to set up a remover script, but /var was read-only at this point. If you fail to see what happens, then you can disable the hotplug script (move it away from /etc/hotplug/usb) and try to use modem_run once the system is booted.
