the modem is an Alcatel speedtouch usb (Manta)
at the beginning, all is fine: modem at boot or hotplugged give me this
log entry:
hayes kernel: ugen0: ALCATEL Speed Touch USB, rev 1.10/0.00, addr 2
to upload the firmware, i use this command
hayes# /usr/local/sbin/modem_run -f /usr/local/libdata/mgmt.o
(modem_run is part of the driver package for the speedtouch modem)
at this state, the firmware is uploaded, and the modem detect the line
carrier (blinking leds )
after this the process began resident and monitors the modem activity.
but now; (after compiling a new kernel today) nothing happens: no error
messages; no logs, NOTHING (including whith the generic kernel)
the process "modem_run" is effectively running; but not giving me back
the controls; and the led doesn't reacts
PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND
650 root 0 0 2348K 1888K ugenrd 0:00 0.00% 0.00% modem_run
hitting control-c give me back the console but the process still alive
PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND
650 root -8 0 2348K 1888K usbdly 0:00 0.00% 0.00% modem_run
his state has changed but never disappear and it is unkillable!
unplugging ('hard-way) the modem give me this log entry:
hayes kernel: ugen0: at uhub0 port 1 (addr 2) disconnected
but it shutdown the usb ports : no usb devices are detected anymore
until reboot ( restarting usbd does nothing)
in my last kernel compiled the 26th september, the modem worked
perfectly; in fact i used this station as an internet gateway for my
local network until today... :°(
compiling the last version of the driver package doesn't affect the
problem in any way
and have found no report of this problem on the driver's mail
archives on speedtouch.sourceforge.net.
any ideas; or should i buy an ethernet one?
ps: sorry for my bad english
