Hi (again)

I've discovered something quite weird.
When I boot, I don't have the connection, and I can't start it

If I remove the module speedtch and modprobe it,
I can start the connection.

I don't understand why.


Here the message I have in /var/log/messages:

when I boot:
 localhost kernel: usb 3-6.1: no stage 1 firmware found!<6>parport0: 
PC-style at 0x378 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP]
 localhost modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting speedtch 
(/lib/modules/2.6.12-rc1/kernel/drivers/usb/atm/speedtch.ko): Unknown 
symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) 

when I:  rmmod speedtch
Mar 31 21:42:25 localhost kernel: usb 3-6.1: no stage 1 firmware 
found!<4>usb 3-6.1: no stage 1 firmware found!<4>usb 3-6.1: no stage 1 
firmware found!<6>usbcore: deregistering driver speedtch

when I: modprobe speedch
Mar 31 21:42:37 localhost kernel: ADSL line is up (608 Kib/s down | 160 
Kib/s up)
Mar 31 21:42:37 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new driver speedtch


After, a simple speedtouch_start works fine.


I hope it helps,
Philippe
