That's good news. You did me a favor by testing it . Now I can reboot with confidence _________________ I was born with a freakin' dice bag on my belt.

For automatic starting ppp, you can
* use /etc/init.d/net.ppp0
* put pppd call adsl in /etc/conf.d/local.start
* use volumen1's script

Hmm... which firmware is everybody using? I downloaded SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012-1.zip from speedtouch's site. What are the differences between the two firmware images? (One is named ZZZL_3.012 and the other is KQD6_3.012) I ran the ./firmware on both of them and they both seem to contain a boot.bin and firmware.bin. I have the purple modem and I tried to use ZZZL_3.012. Sadly, I had problems when I tried. It probably doesn't help that I'm wicked hungover. Anyway, it seems like PPPD isn't seeing that there is a usable interface?

Just a thought, are you trying to start pppd before the line has finished syncing?
I use the mgmt.o as firmware with the green one, don't know which one do you need for the purple one, but is somewhere on the speedtouch site

Hmm... I'm using the Speedtouch 330. I've done a little more work and found out that if I use the ZZZL_3.012 firmware, I get an error the DSL line never comes up. Sadly, I didn't save the error message, and it only shows up in dmesg.
However, if I use the KQD6_3.012 firmware, then the DSL line will come up. After that, I run pppd call adsl (or my modified speedtouch script) and I will get connected. However, the line only stays up for about 1:40 then it drops and I can never get pppd to connect again. I was getting errors like "connect0.32 address already in use".
I'm going to work on it some more and then I'll post the actual errors, but I was wondering if anyone had success with the Speedtouch 330 modems using 2.6.10? _________________ I was born with a freakin' dice bag on my belt.

Can you check if you still have modem_run running by some mysterious reasons? I have had a lot of troubles with 2.6.10 with modem_run, the 2 line monitoring systems were conflicting each other and ther was no way to bring atm + pppd back without a reboot.
Now I have finnaly a uptime of more than 2 days.
There are some people with (almost)t the same problems on the speedtouch mailing list, here is a quote
Quote: |
It seems that the firmware isn't loading. Which firmware are you using? The silver
revision 4 modem uses the ZZZL_3.012 file from the SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip
Edit the bootscript so that modem run tries with ZZZL_3.012 file.
I'm sorry the SuSE page isn't very clear about which firmware to use. It's on my TODO list |

right getting this modem to run has now become a matter of pride as my house mate have gone and bought a shiny new router and decided not to give the admin password on it
im using the silver version of the modem (revison 4?) so when i got a 404 on the firmware.bin i went and downloaded SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip from linux-usb.sourceforge.com and ZZZL_3.012 instaed of the firmware.bin in etc/conf.d/speedtouch
this is what i get every time i try and start my modem
Code: |
* Starting Speedtouch ADSL Modem......
* Loading firmware...
* Can't load the microcode !!
* Please detach and attach again your modem to the USB port to unload the microcode.
* Then run '/etc/init.d/speedtouch start'
* Speedtouch firmward load failed [ !! ]
|
and this is my config script
Code: |
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/net-dialup/speedtouch/files/speedtouch.confd,v 1.6 2004/09/28 01:23:20 swegener Exp $
# Config file for the speedtouch ebuild
# Set the microcode path
#MICROCODE="/usr/share/speedtouch/mgmt.o"
MICROCODE="/usr/local/lib/speedtouch/ZZZL_3.012"
#MICROCODE="/usr/local/lib/speedtouch/KQD6_3.012"
# Set verbose level for modem_run
VERBOSE="0"
# Set the peer filename
# This should be in /etc/ppp/peers/
PEER="adsl"
# Extra options to modem_run
# Some modems will need "-s", if in doubt then leave blank
# add "-k" for use with the kernel mode driver
# add "-a /usr/share/speedtouch/boot.v123.bin" if your modem is green or purple
#MODEM_RUN_EXTRAOPTS="-s"
#MODEM_RUN_EXTRAOPTS="-k -a /usr/share/speedtouch/boot.v123.bin"

Oh yeh, I downgraded to ppp-2.4.2-r10, and it works fine for me, so maybe you should try that? _________________ the forums.gentoo.org poster formally known as metal leper |

If you are using kernel > 2.6.10 please use the kernel + hotplug t oload your firmware instead of modem_run

I had my speedtouch 330 modem working perfectly well for few week until yesterday. KDE crashed and I had to reboot the machine. After this I am getting a segmentation fault if I try to run pppd call adsl. As far as I can see firmware is loading fine. I checked all the relevent config file to see if there is any corruption and also emerged ppp, linux-atm etc again, but still the same problem. Can anybody help me please, and give me some ideas about what could be wrong. |

Does anyone have this working with 2.6.11?
Works for me with 2.6.10-mm2, but not with 2.6.11-mm{1,4}
The firmware seems to get loaded ok, but then something seems to go wrong when running pppd call adsl
I'm too lazy to try and figure out what the problem is yet, but I'm sure I'll get round to it sometime this week... _________________ the forums.gentoo.org poster formally known as metal leper |

I've got a problem with the Thomson one not loading the microcode. I've already got a thread for this in Installing Gentoo forum but am duplicating my latest here incase anyone can help from this one.
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2306588.html#2306588 <-- Original Thread
I've got zzzl_3.012 and kqd6_3.012 which are correct for my versin of the modem.
I've tried
Code: | # Copyright 1999-2004 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/net-dialup/speedtouch/files/speedtouch.confd,v 1.6 2004/09/28 01:23:20 swegener Exp $
# Config file for the speedtouch ebuild
# Set the microcode path
MICROCODE="/usr/share/speedtouch/zzzl_3.012"
# Set verbose level for modem_run
VERBOSE="1"
# Set the peer filename
# This should be in /etc/ppp/peers/
PEER="ntl"
# Extra options to modem_run
# Some modems will need "-s", if in doubt then leave blank
# add "-k" for use with the kernel mode driver
# add "-a /usr/share/speedtouch/boot.v123.bin" if your modem is green or purple
MODEM_RUN_EXTRAOPTS="-k -a /usr/share/speedtouch/kqd6_3.012.eni"
|
I've tried the above with "-k" on it's own. "-k -s", "-s -a /path/to/etc" and even just "-s" and also "". Each time I plug the modem in and I'm watching /var/log/messages I keep seeing "Can't load MICROCODE!"
The paths to the files are correct. Both are in the correct folder. modem_run is 1.3.1 and ppp is 2.4.3. I'm using the 2.6.11-r5 gentoo-sources kernel. I followed another guide on this site about emerging speedtouch,pp,linux-atm and a few kernel modules. Still I can't get it working.
It works on the kanotix livecd but not in gentoo. I've even copied the ntl adsl peers file over, as I know this one works on the livecd so the options are correct for my ISP. It just won't load the darn microcode to my modem _________________ WARNING: It is a violation of federal law to use me in a way inconsistent with my labelling.

I don't know what else can I do!!!
I did everithing that is in this topic (and a lot of others HOWTO too) and when I execute the /etc/init.d/speedtouch start,
the firmware loads normally and aftar that it says that the PPP daemon has failed to start...
If someone knows the solution, I would be really great if you could explain it to me clearly and with lots of detais cause
I'm still very noob with linux...
ps: please help or I will have to go back to fedora core, and I don't want to |

I have an "Alcatel Speed Touch ADSL Modem (ISDN)", so i get my adsl through an isdn line.
I followed all the steps written here, and when i try to run Code: | /etc/init.d/speedtouch start | i get the following output: Code: | Sep 1 09:41:53 server modem_run[18277]: modem_run version 1.3.1 started by root uid 0
Sep 1 09:41:53 server modem_run[18277]: Unexpected modem revision 0001, assuming Rev 0200 modem.
Sep 1 09:41:58 server modem_run[18277]: Kernel mode driver not found
|
I guess i have this problem because it is another version of the modem (made for isdn). What can i do to get my internet connection to work ?
By the way, i'm living in Hungary (ISP Globonet), and i'm not sure my VP/VC is correct: i tried 8.35
Thanks for you help ! |

looks like you need another version of the firmware for that _________________ ex: Gentoo Linux Developer: amd64 media-optical sound gnome

I began using an mgmt.o i found on the internet, i suppose it was for the "Alcatel Speedtouch USB".
I also tried using my alcaudsl.sys from windows, which IS different from the first firmware i tried. But i got the same problem.
I don't know what else i could use as firmware. |

Bumping this because I also have the:
Can't load the microcode !!
* Please detach and attach again your modem to the USB port to unload the microcode.
* Then run '/etc/init.d/speedtouch start'
* Speedtouch firmward load failed
Issue. No matter what I try and what files I try, it just wont work. |

I think that can happen if the kernel module ("speedtch") and modem_run are both trying to load the firmware at the same time. I recommend following the howto. _________________ Improve your font rendering and ALSA sound |
