hi andrej, thank you for this information.
on win2000, both lights are on when the system boots and stay on. no special flashing occurs later on, nor during driver reinstall. i reckon there may be the silly USB1.0 involved somehow. will check indeep on the win side now that the X side cannot cause harm hereon. i will keep the list informed if i do find out the problem... greetings from tyrol, andre > Yes, it's true that linux driver loads firmware into modem at boot > time.
