Hi Ed and Paul Paul: thanks for the link to the UBuntu help site. The set up procedure looks very similar, so I will have to go through them carefully and compare.
Ed: I have no file /etc/ppp/peers/usbadslmodem, so this is something else I need to look into, thank you. Whilst switching between desktops, I did notice the message come up on booting stating "The Speedtouch Firmware did not load." This seems to be a vital clue; does anyone have any suggestions ? Regards and thanks Roger. >From: "Ed Vaessen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: speedtouch@ml.free.fr >To: speedtouch@ml.free.fr >Subject: [speedtouch] Re: Feisty >Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2007 14:12:40 +0200 (CEST) > > >It seems that your line is up.
