By the way, the same thing happens with my Evo N160 laptop...

Ahh, how didn't I think of that before <smacks self>. Anyway, the
TROUBLESHOOTING file was very helpful - apparently I wasn't supposed to
compile usb support into the kernel, but leave it as a module.

Hmm, Apparently something is not the same as with the modems that are
imported
to Israel by Rotal. I'll check it this week.
Actually, the TROUBLESHOOTING file talks about that too. I'm supposed to
either unload all the modules before rebooting or unplug the modem and
then plug it back in. I'll choose the latter for now :-)
Anyway, the good (great?) news is that I managed to get connected. The bad
news is that after about a minute, the connection died. It didn't say it
died (the small ppp monitor next to the CPU monitor continued to be
displayed), nothing was printed to /var/log/messages, but I couldn't
connect anywhere anymore, couldn't ping anything and couldn't resolve any
hostnames. I tried it again several times, with the same result.
Almost there,
Alexander Maryanovsky.
P.S. Wish me luck on my Entomology quiz - it ain't no kernel hacking you
know :-)

1. No, it's not my script (startmodem is a script) and it was written by the
french team. I did few small fixes there.
