[Lust] Fw: external modems

Hi,
Does the driver supplied come with the source code? It may be possible to
rebuild it, but I'm guessing the driver will be for the 2.4 (possible even
2.2) kernel given its age. What little information there is out there
suggests this is a USB 1.1 device and has been EOLed.

You can either determine which chipset the device uses and look for a
compatible driver or chalk it up to experiece and get another ADSL device.
USB devices are often given away free and quickly upgraded by their owners
so an appeal on the LUG list might get you a freebie.

Regards,
Jim
