huh?? What linux distribution do you use? I use redhat 7.3 with their
2.4.18-10 kernel with Intel 82801 chipset - no crashes here while rebooting,
I've tried both RedHat 8.0 and Mandrake 9.0 with the exact same result - if
the modem is plugged in, it gets hung on "Finding Module Dependencies" at boot.
although I heard from people that in some cases the modem mistakenly is
recognized as a device which needs the dabusb module, which is clearly a
false thing.
How would I figure out whether that is the case and fix it if it is?
Thanks,
Alexander Maryanovsky.

your kernel), HDLC, and of course the modules for your USB controllers. I
have tested it with UHCI stuff, not OHCI.

If you have a choice - go buy the one with the NIC, although it's more
expensive (I think 300 NIS or so).

I'm just waiting for a french guy to put the stuff inside the CVS. If
everything goes OK, I will post a 0.6pre-something driver.
