i've looked through plenty of forums, asked loads of questions.

 

i have the said alcatel 330 usb speedtouch modem

 

(note: before i start, upon mount none........ i get none could not be mounted according to [cant remember] none is already mounted, is this o.k.)

i have been through the set up as in past versions

 

./configure && install

./make install

blah blah blah....

 

i'm getting the led's flashing now in kernel 2.6 after installing speedtouch-1.2-1mdk.i586.rpm

if not installed i get nothing

 

couldnt get to work, hung at first with alcauld.sys, ok with mgmt.o

get a responce with ifconfig ppp0

 

 

 

tried an install as above full normal but when asked at install which applications i require i also ticked the 2.4 kernel

 

 

same as above

 

 

 

 

 

tried another install as full but with lsb to force a 2.4 kernel install

 

 

again nothing
