Well.. our driver support a lot of GlobeSpan chipset-based USB ADSL modems, and in most cases, hotplug loads dabusb module at startup to add support for the (modem) devices. We used to disable dabusb module load by removing the module file or re-configuring the kernel to skip dabusb support, and with latest versions of hotplug (depending on the GNU/Linux distro), we recommend our users to add dabusb to the blacklist file. You will find related info about how we manage this issue there: the project page.. http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/index.php?lang=en the supported modems list (including vid/pid).. http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/modems.php?lang=en our Q/A in the FAQ related to this dabusb issue.. http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/faq.php?lang=en#2.1 My questions: 1/ Do we use the right method to avoid dabusb loading for non-audio-dabusb devices (modems). 2/ Is this really a conflict? What's your thought about this? 3/ Do you have any piece of advice related to this (generally)?
