Speedtouch 330 won't detect

Hi,

I have the adsl modem "Speed Touch 330".
It's linux driver is available, however according to the installation manual it should be autodetected by the kernel.

That is not the case in my 2.6.14 kernel on Slackware 10.1
How do I get the kernel detect it?

those modems suck, and i don't think that the driver (http://speedtouch.sf.net) is actually in the mainline kernel yet.

oh... tell a lie it is according to that link! so if you do a "modprobe speedtouch" does it load? on my FC4 2.6.15, the module doesn't appear to have been included by default, so you may need to recompile your kernel if it's the same situation. there is more kernel info here... http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/

The problem is NOT the driver, I have the driver, the kernel jsut doesnt detect the modem.
I mean in the lspci output, I see no modem, as I should according to the documentation
