No it isn't. I'm fairly sure we've been down the fixing-the-filenames path 
already. Correct, Fred?

What *has* happened is that Fred has called his file ST330.zip instead of 
SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip, or at least not rerun unzip with the file 
where it can find it.

Exactly. Look at the command that isn't working:

unzip SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip &&
./firmware-extractor ZZZL_3.012

There's two commands there. The first one unzips the zip, and it doesn't 
matter if you use windows, Konqueror, the commandline as above, or dance 
around a candle hoping it will unzip itself to get the contents out. the 
important thing is that you get that zzzl_3.012 file, AND THEN RUN THE 
SECOND HALF OF THE COMMAND - which won't happen if the unzip fails because 
you've called the zip file somehting different.

Beware of that && - it means "do A, and if A succeeds, do B". You'll 
proabably meet that later on, and it would be handy not to get stuck on it 
again :).

So, as Andrew says, run firmware-extractor on whatever your firmware file 
is called (either ZZZL_3.012 or zzzl_3.012 depending on what you've used 
to extract it from the zip), then continue from "sudo cp speedtch* 
/lib/hotplug/firmware" to copy the firmware into hotplugs firmware folder.

We *will* get there eventually :)

Cheers
