HOWTO: Speedtouch USb (Idiots guide, by an idiot!)
I'm a linux newb, and I know the trouble I had trying to get my speedtouch adsl modem to work in linux, so now it's working, I've written a howto for people in the same situation - this is so simple, it's just quite had to find on the net!
1)Download script from http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=68502
2)Extract the .tar.gz file to your home directory (Right click and click extract) (or other directory, it's just easier to find in home!)
3)Download mgmt.o from http://www.sprinkles.me.uk/mgmt.o
4) place file in home/speedtouch-conf/firmware
5)open a konsole (its a blue box with a white border with some gold lines on the panel)
6)type su
7)Type in your root password (if you haven't set one yet, click the button next to the start applications button, click root shell and type passwd
type cd speedtouch-conf
9)type [b] sh speedtouch.sh
10) enter information (username password etc. for your isp)
11) Hopefully, Enjoy The Net!
Note to mod: I think this was supposed to be posted in hardware, if it's in the wrong forum can yo move it please - thanks.

Thanks. This howto seems to work on my hd install knoppix. But when I try to connect it says something like:
"Error 237. Another device/program is already accesing the modem"
I am very newbie. Any suggestion?

.
I'm not sure - try unplugging your modem, then plugging it back in

Been trying to get my speedtouch modem installed on a variety of linux systems, suse 9.1 won't work due to usb_ohci or something. This is the closet I've got using knoppix but when I try this it says:-
No further user interaction is required.
Configuring SpeedTouch Driver...
Software Configuration - SUCCESS
Building SpeedTouch Driver...
Software Build - SUCCESS
Installing SpeedTouch Driver...
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/sbin/modem_run': Read-only file system
make[1]: *** [modem_run] Error 1
make: *** [install-bin] Error 2
Software Installation - FAILED
Please check /tmp/speedtouch.make.install.txt for errors
Read only file system? I am logged in as su though? Huh?

Yes the modem still works under windows, don't forget to stop de modem in linux (amstop.sh, ou speedthouc-stop) before going to windows, because some times if you do not stop it, the modem will be unavaible for windows.
My modem is an OCTAL with the same chip of the speedtouch.

The alternative is to try the LiveCD Kanotix. This has a Speedtouch connection in the main menu (PPPoATM or PPPoE). It works very well.
