I'm trying to get my Speedstream 5200 to run on Knoppix 3.3. I was going to use the Alcatel Speedtouch USB but I'm about to analy rape Alcatel with my foot I'm so fed up with that modem.
I looked over the other threads about Alcatel and I think I saw a Speedstream Thread but it just reffered to the Alcatel USB.
First of all I'm running a disk boot or whatever ya' call it (I'm about 3 days new to linux but I learn with extreme speed) As I have already learned many of my first trials self taught. Any who can some one please explain to me what to do. I don't have much of a clue what to do but I can figure it out pretty fast.
I'm running it off of a disk so a friend of mine can do a "remote install" as he calls it, of Gentoo, I think... but first I have to get the modem ready so he can hook up to my computer. And it isn't working. I have lights flashing on my modem and I have a link to a download that is supposed to be my access manager that link being: ftp://download.sympatico.ca/hse/linux/
I think what I have to do involves that, but I dont know what to do with that, the readme says stuff about directories that arent there. It also says something about Redhat, and of course neither Gentoo or Knoppix are Redhat.
Basically I need a walkthough
