This is what I get: root@srv:/# cat /sys/module/speedtch/parameters/enable_isoc Y I think it means it confirms the isochronous mode is working. Especially that I modified the source of the speedtch.c so that the enable_isoc is on by default. > You may need new firmware (I've attached some recent > firmware that was made available by Thomson UK without any licence > conditions). Many thanks for your great support. I will try the new firmware tomorrow, as this is a remote machine and I would now risk loosing it for an entire evening and night in case something goes wrong (usually it just does go wrong :) -- Regards, MK
