| 258565 | 2004-08-05 09:33:00 | Hi, Just got mandrake 10.0 from dse today, installed it all went well except for sound not working..different problem. I need to get online so I can sort this sound problem and a few other driver issues, but I cannot get my speedtouch modem to work. If you go to the control panel it does not have a option for NZ but i know that finland uses the same settings so I tried to use that no luck looked at pressf1.pcworld.co.nz and www.linux-usb.org but could not get it going..apears that when I build it will not work, errors with source I am new to linux but know computers very well, could someone please give me instructions on how they got theirs going, I am about to try www.webconexion.net then I may give up on it for the night my system is Dual boot windows xp home, mandrake 10.0 kde 3.2 256mb ram 80gb hard 20 to linux 128mb ddr graphics gigabyte nforce2 motherboard cd writer thanks Brad |

| 258567 | 2004-08-05 11:12:00 | Did you use the speedtouch-1.3-2.i586.rpm package? | Jen C (20) | ||
| 258568 | 2004-08-06 21:53:00 | Yes i did still no go | Brad H (738) | ||
| 258569 | 2004-08-07 00:06:00 | Okay reinstalled mandrake put on speedtouchconf.sh and run it set up right the firmware loaded with the modem flashing then telling me it couldn't get a connection, restarted computer kde crashed when loading preperiariels (spelling) so restarted again now won't load gets to 85% and hangs at restoring session | Brad H (738) | ||
| 258570 | 2004-08-09 07:03:00 | Reformatted and tryed again, using the mandrake drivers and changing the vci vpi numbers, can now get the modem to load the firmware and flash its lights but still cannot get a connection, how, in detail has anyone else managed to get this modem working in new zealand on jetstream | Brad H (738) | ||
| 258571 | 2004-08-11 11:09:00 | My best advice to you is to buy a router. I had the same problem, I did have it working but it was a pain having it connect at boot time. Otherwise you had to start it from the command line. It's so much easier with a router. Phil |
