I try to make this modem working.
It works very well on kernel 2.4 series.
It work with some kernel 2.6 until test2-mm1.
But since test2-mm1, the newer kernel doesn't work anymore. There is 2 related drivers for this modem.
The one which is included in the kernel and which can be found here :
http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/
and the one which I've always used until now :
speedtouch.sourceforge.net

when I notice that the old one doesn't work anymore, I try with the driver which included in the kernel, without success.
Did you follow the instructions on http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/ ?

It crashed when I do "pppd call adsl".
From what I see below you are still using the userspace driver (pppoa3),
which is being called by pppd. This won't work when you have the kernel module loaded. You need to use a pppoa aware pppd and not call pppd.

I can load the firmware.
And here is messages in syslog :

so, the last kernel which work with this adsl modem is test2-mm1.
It looks like usbfs is broken again. I should be able to look into this next week. In the meantime, please try the kernel module.
All the best,
Duncan.
