I have a speedtouch 330 ADSL modem (rev4) And after a LOT of messing around with the drivers and firmware files I have managed to get it kind of working.
I got the configuration files from Sourceforge website and proceeded as follows.
1. decompress speedtouchconf-10-Nov-2004.tar.gz with the command;
tar xzvf speedtouchconf-10-Nov-2004.tar.gz
2. Copy and paste the files speedmgmt.tar.gz and rev4fw.zip (still COMPRESSED) into the speedtouchconf-10-Nov-2004 folder which got created. (I used the GUI for this)
3. cd into the folder and Install with the command;
./speedtouchconf.sh
and enter the information requested...

Following these steps I am now on the internet, however...
a.There is no way of knowing I'm on it because their is no icon on my KDE taskbar.
b. YAST does not see my DSL connection so as for seting up a firewall.... I gave up
c. during the configuration script the message "FATAL: Module usb_ohci not found" apears but causes no problem at this piont.
d. The last part of the configuration script goes....
-------------------
To automatically dial-in when the PC boots up :
chkconfig speedtouch on
Do you want to set this up now? (Yes / No)
Yes
init command succeeded
You are now connected. There is no need to run this
speedtouchconf.sh script again.
Congratulations.
----------------------
But when I reboot the following occurs.
Starting ADSL connection:FATAL: Module usb_ohci not found. failed
And the speedtouch conection is not present, so I have to run the configuration script again.
In my attempt to fix this and after more research I changed a line in /etc/speedtouch.conf from
DEFAULT_USBINTERFACE="usb_ohci"
to
DEFAULT_USBINTERFACE="ohci_hcd"
"ohci_hcd" is listed when I enter the command lsmod
but then when I reboot I get;
Starting ADSL connection: failed
Again the conection is not present.
I dispair......... I'm not an experienced linux user. Any sugestions?

Tried rebooting the modem (not sure if that's possible, wityh the speedtouch, but it's worth a try. You uploaded the firmware correct?

[teaspoon]

I have tried physicaly unplug / replugging it and this does not help if this is what you mean. I was careful to upload the firmware right, and I have also used the "alcaudsl.sys" firmware file from windows drivers directory.

I have also found on the net detailed instructions specific to Suse 9.1 personal (search google "speedtch +Suse 9.1 personal" result under linux-usb.org), which utilises a module loaded into the kernel. unfortunately this does not work either I get the following;
----------------------------------------
linux:~ # modprobe pppoatm
linux:~ # modem_run -k -f /etc/ppp/KQD6_3.012
linux:~ # pppd call speedtch
Plugin pppoatm.so loaded.
connect(0.38): Resource temporarily unavailable
Failed to open 0.38: Resource temporarily unavailable
------------------------------------------
The led's don't blink either they just stay solid green.

Ah got it...... alas it is fixed!!!

I have net connection automatically during boot.

I did the same search as mentioned in last post, and went into http://www.4p8.com/eric.brasseur/spe..._suse_9.1.html the solution is there.

Thanks for your assistance Whiteskin

Hi Teaspoon, my system is very much alike to yours and I have suse 9.1.
How do i possibly do what you have done? I am desperate. Please help me. Could you please run through the whole process please. Thanks.

And another thing I noted, once I go through the process on the link that you have given above except the firmware upgrading bit coz there were two files and i wasnt sure which one to use for my speedtouch 330, the whole suse system would kinda crash coz when it is loading at the startup, it just gets stuck. would that have anything to do with my 128 mb rdram
