on a 233? it's slow enough on a 533

Yep, just tried the embedded version, it's painfully slow, but normal version runs great.

Thanks to all that helped, I am now so so near getting my connection working.  I have the driver sorted and everthing, but this happens when i try to connect: Screen grab.

Anyone got any ideas? I'm so close to getting this sorted.

Looks like your running from liveCD.
The update-modules can't update your /lib/modules.dep ,
because it is read-only on the CD.

Usually you have to try a more manual approach to adding your
module ( whatever.o ) to your lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers directory.

and look in your speedtouch-start file for some config lines that you could
type in a shell manually..

Once you have the magic working, making it restorable after a reboot is easy.

Still a bit stuck, athough it's not really a huge problem because I have fine access to the internet in w98, its still a bit of a pain in the arse.

Just got a bundle for my modem that should technically work fine, but I get this message when i try to make:

Error: could not find the source for your running kernel in /lib/modules/2.4.26/build

Is this an issue with running DSL live?

I'm still a complete newbie, and I think its going to take a while to get my head round all this.
