Hello, I have installed SuSE9.3 and tried to get the mauve speedtouch 330 (revision 2.00) to work. It works nicely on Mandrake 10.1 on the same machine (dual boot). Thanks to the instructions of .... it seems that the modem is operational, because 1. The way the lights flash on that modem are familiar to me and suggest that the microcode is uploaded correctly into the thing. 2. I get the following lines from /var/log/messages:
Apr 30 17:00:42 linux kernel: ADSL line is synchronising . . . Apr 30 17:00:58 linux kernel: DSL line goes up Apr 30 17:00:58 linux kernel: ADSL line is up (1600 Kib/s down | 512 Kib/s up) Apr 30 17:01:15 linux hald[7624]: Timed out waiting for hotplug event 1051. Rebasing to 1079 Apr 30 17:01:29 linux su: (to root) vaessen on /dev/pts/2 But these lines are also the last lines of /var/log/messages and that suprises me a bit. Anyway, I tried to get configure the connection with my provider (xs4all, The Netherlands) via Yast modules (configuring a DSL connection) but to no avail. Perhaps no surprise because the connection it makes has the unfamiliar name "dsl0" intead of the "ppp0" tha I have always known. Not getting further, I read some information from a site that gave described the set up of things under SuSE 9.2. I put my secret info in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets as well as in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets. Then I created a file named: /etc/ppp/peers/speedtch containing: lcp-echo-interval 10 lcp-echo-failure 3 noipdefault defaultroute user "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" noauth noaccomp nopcomp noccp novj holdoff 4 persist maxfail 25 updetach usepeerdns plugin pppoatm.so 4.48 The information for the username of course being adapted. Next, a bootscript named: /etc/init.d/dial was made containing: #!/bin/bash modprobe pppoatm && #modem_run -k -f /etc/ppp/mgmt.o && pppd call speedtch (Guessing that modem_run was no longer needed, the corresponding line was commented out) and some settings were made: chmod 744 /etc/init.d/dial && cd /etc/init.d/rc5.d && ln -s ../dial S50dial What I then found out was that the module pppoatm was not installed after reboot. I modprobed it then but after that, a new line was added to /var/log/messages: Apr 30 17:03:53 linux kernel: pppoatm: unsupported module, tainting kernel. Maybe that was the reason why the bootscript /etc/init.d/dial didn't install it. I gave the command by hand, as root: pppd call speedtch and the /var/log/messages was extenden with: Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: Plugin pppoatm.so loaded. Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: PPPoATM plugin_init Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: PPPoATM setdevname_pppoatm - SUCCESS:4.48 Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: pppd 2.4.3 started by vaessen, uid 0 Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: Using interface ppp0 Apr 30 17:34:42 linux pppd[7887]: Connect: ppp0 <--> 4.48 and a little later: Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: Connection terminated. Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: connect(4.48): Address already in use Apr 30 17:36:42 linux pppd[7887]: Exit. So still no connection. By the way: /etc/resolv.conf contains the DNS info.
