There are two main ways to get this working. Kernel space is better but harder. I would suggest you stick with the user space tools. Have you tried the Speedtouchconf? http://speedtouchconf.sourceforge.net/

This is only needed if you want to use kernel firmware loading which has only just become available in the 2.6.10 kernel. This is a good idea as it removes the need to use modem_run and speeds up the time it takes to boot as the modem loads the firmware while the kernel gets on with other things Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se d�sinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
