Download files

Download kernel 2.6.10 or newer

www.kernel.org (for example: linux-2.6.12.3.tar.bz2)

Download the following files:

ppp-2.4.3-4mdk.i586.rpm
ppp-pppoe-2.4.3-4mdk.i586.rpm
libpcap0-0.8.3-3mdk.i586.rpm
rp-pppoe-3.5-5mdk.i586.rpm
flex-2.5.4a-22mdk.i586.rpm
linux-atm-2.4.1.tar.gz
br2684ctl.c

Download and copy firmware (cxacru-fw.bin) to /lib/hotplug/firmware (you'll probably need to create the directory, see variable FIRMWARE_DIR in /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent )

New! cxacru-fw-2.099.093.000.tar.gz
older cxacru-fw-2.099.063.000.tar.gz

Download connect/disconnect script (for ST DSL parameters are VPI=1, VCI=32)

stdsl.sh

Copy these files to some temporary directory (for example: /adsl)
To install rpm packages # rpm -Uvh <filename.rpm>
Extract .tar.gz file to temporary directory

Download file

usbatm-20050216.tar.bz2

Extract and copy the downloaded file to /usr/src/linux-2.6.12.3/drivers/usb/atm make the kernel from source

# cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.12.3
# make menuconfig

# ./configure --prefix=/usr
# make

If you are getting error, then modify linux-atm-2.4.1/src/lib/sapequal.c
add comment on lines 68 and 86 like this:
  // default:
also do this on lines 262 and 291 in linux-atm-2.4.1/src/sigd/proto.c
and on line 47 in linux-atm-2.4.1/src/maint/enitune.c

compile and install

# make install

Compile br2684ctl.c

# cd /adsl
# cc -o br2684ctl br2684ctl.c -latm

copy br2684ctl to /usr/sbin

# cp /adsl/br2684ctl /usr/sbin/br2684ctl

copy stdsl to /usr/sbin and make it executable

# chmod u+x /usr/sbin/stdsl.sh

Connecting/disconnecting

# stdsl.sh start

# stdsl.sh stop
