Note that "module registered" in +/var/log/messages only confirms that the kernel module is loaded - +it does not indicate that the connection is compressed. + + +Links +===== + +Gentoo wiki: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Speedtouch_modem +SpeedTouch ebuilds: http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=speedtouch +SpeedTouch hardware: http://www.speedtouch.com/support.htm +SpeedTouch firmware: http://www.speedtouch.com/driver_upgrade_lx_3.0.1.2.htm diff --git a/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/files/digest-speedtouch-usb-3.0.1.2 b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/files/digest-speedtouch-usb-3.0.1.2 new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..d51893105db5 --- /dev/null +++ b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/files/digest-speedtouch-usb-3.0.1.2 @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +MD5 2551ce46ef785642f2c6768511f70ff3 SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip 769125 diff --git a/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/files/speedtch.usermap b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/files/speedtch.usermap new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..c9079e764232 --- /dev/null +++ b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/files/speedtch.usermap @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +# usb module match_flags idVendor idProduct bcdDevice_lo bcdDevice_hi bDeviceClass bDeviceSubClass bDeviceProtocol bInterfaceClass bInterfaceSubClass bInterfaceProtocol driver_info +speedtch 0x0003 0x06b9 0x4061 0x0000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00000000 "Alcatel SpeedTouch USB" diff --git a/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/metadata.xml b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/metadata.xml new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..ad9105084891 --- /dev/null +++ b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/metadata.xml @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> +<!DOCTYPE pkgmetadata SYSTEM "http://www.gentoo.org/dtd/metadata.dtd"> +<pkgmetadata> +<herd>net-dialup</herd> +<longdescription>Firmware and configuration instructions for the kernel-space driver for Alcatel SpeedTouch USB modems.</longdescription> +</pkgmetadata> diff --git a/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/speedtouch-usb-3.0.1.2.ebuild b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/speedtouch-usb-3.0.1.2.ebuild new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..15a1145484be --- /dev/null +++ b/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/speedtouch-usb-3.0.1.2.ebuild @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +# Copyright 1999-2006 Gentoo Foundation +# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 +# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/net-dialup/speedtouch-usb/speedtouch-usb-3.0.1.2.ebuild,v 1.1 2006/03/18 20:10:52 mrness Exp $ + +inherit eutils linux-info + +DESCRIPTION="Firmware and configuration instructions for the kernel-space driver for Alcatel SpeedTouch USB modems" +HOMEPAGE="http://www.speedtouch.com/" +SRC_URI="http://www.speedtouch.com/download/drivers/USB/SpeedTouch330_firmware_${PV//./}.zip" + +# Taken from http://www.speedtouch.com/driver_upgrade_lx_3.0.1.2.htm +LICENSE="SpeedTouch-USB-Firmware" +SLOT="0" +KEYWORDS="~x86" +IUSE="" + +# udev replaces hotplug, as mentioned at +# http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/firmware/firmware.html +# hotplug only needs to be *installed*, to create /etc/hotplug/usb/ - it does +# not need to be running. + +RDEPEND=">=net-dialup/ppp-2.4.3-r11 + >=sys-apps/hotplug-20040923-r1 + >=sys-fs/udev-079-r1 + !net-dialup/speedtouch" +DEPEND="${RDEPEND} + app-arch/unzip" + +S="${WORKDIR}" + +pkg_setup() { + linux-info_pkg_setup + + if kernel_is lt 2 6 10 ; then + eerror "The kernel-space driver exists only in kernels >= 2.6.10." + eerror "Please emerge net-dialup/speedtouch instead or upgrade the kernel." + die "Unsupported kernel version" + fi + + if !
