Eduardo...Andrej and everyone I have had problems in fact with the SppedTouch firmware on some distros.. The question is, is it a matter of the distro ?? Well the answer is Yes and NO For example, on Mandriva 2005 (as a RedHat based like Fedora), http://linux-usb.sourceforge.net/SpeedTouch/index.html went with some difficulties. However, they worked quite perfectly on any Debian based distro I have on my machine.. So, the disro type does matter inspite of having the same kernel. Please try http://steve-parker.org/speedtouchconf// This is a fairly newer firmware, I have found that the page has been updated since I used it for Mandriva to the newer versions of the distros mentioned which makes it, ideally, even better.. Give it a try !!!!!!...
Please walk carefully through the 1- Steps, 2- Example.. 3- FAQ. Please note, use only the new firmware (rev4fw), as if you do install older verions, a conflict will result (see FAQ). This is my personal opinion and experience. I welcome all coomments Good luck ----- Original Message ----- From: Eduard Oganesian To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 10:33 PM Subject: [speedtouch] Please help me Hi everybody, I am new using Linux. Currently I am using the Red Hat Desktop 4. My modem is SpeedTouch 330 THOMSON ,revision 4. I did everything that is indicated in the "Extracting The Firmware" text, and the only thing I have get is removing my soundcard and floppy disk drivers. And still I coudn´t connect to the internet. My questions are: Is RedHat appropiate for these isntruction that you gave me in your webside? Should I get another distro? As you indicated me to download a copy of Udev, I downloaded and installed the udev-076.tar.bz2. Should I try with another version? In the end of "Extracting The Firmware" text you just say "All that remains to do then is to run pppd to connect to the wibbly wobbly web." How is this supposed to work if a didn´t enter my User name and my Password? I´ve tried everything. Please help me. _________________________________________________________________ Charla con tus amigos en línea mediante MSN Messenger: http://messenger.latam.msn.com/ Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
