Hi all, i have a strange problem with my speedtouch.
A couple of infos My speedtouch is a Green Manta (Rev.0) It is installed on a notebook acer travelmate 521te ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - 128 Mb ram O.S. is a debian stable (sarge) kernel 2.6.8-3-686 compiled by debian. When i switch on the computer the kernel loads successfully the driver and the speedtch script loads successfully the modem firmware. When i launch "pppd call adsl updetach" everithing goes fine and the connection is up, so all is right. [Call log] Jun 4 20:34:06 localhost pppd[4842]: Plugin pppoatm.so loaded.

It didn't recognize the modem disconnection. So, now i kill the pppd daemon. The error now is: #Plugin pppoatm.so loaded. #connect(8.35): No such device This is the thing i can't figure out. The only way i found to reestabilish the connection is the reboot of the computer. If i manually disconnect and reconnect the usb speedtouch BEFORE do "pppd call adsl updetach" the connection is successfully estabilished with alcatel usb address of 3 (or 4 or 5 ecc.). The problem arise only when the disconnection of the usb happens AFTER the pppd call. I think this is a pppd problem, but i can't find ways to solve or workaround it. Any idea ?
