According to http://www.zenwalk.org/ Zenwalk Linux 1.3 uses kernel 2.6.12.6 so you shouldn't need to use the userspace drivers to load the firmware, the kernel load the firmware itself. Get a copy of the firmware extractor http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/firmware/firmware-extractor and then use it to split the firmware into two parts like this chmod +x firmware-extractor && ./firmware-extractor /path/to/your/firmware That should split the firmware into speedtch-1.bin and speedtch-2.bin. Copy them into hotplugs firmware folder which is usually /lib/firmware and the kernel should load the firmware when you boot up, or when you plug the modem in. If the firmware loads the right hand light should flash about eight or nine times and then stay green. If you can get that far let us know and we'll see if we can talk you through running pppd to connect.
