Feedback is welcome.
- In case of problem our user support forum is available (in english), have a look to FaqEagle before ;-)
- there are latest bnm files from sagem included : they work perfectly for my fast 800. In case of a problem with synchronization, just revert to the previous ones you have
- .deb packages are being prepared

Changelog
Here is the
complete changelog
Improvements
- updated ISP list (BenoitAudouard)
- pppd mru/mtu should work for German ISP and patch by Robert Siemer included to correct problems with oversize packets (even more visible if the server is a gateway)
- Slackware 10 complete support ! (hotplug, autostart on boot...)
- Mandrake 10.1 support
- do not use "internet" service anymore (use ifcfg-ppp0 instead)
- use /etc/ppp/peers/ppp0 instead of /etc/ppp/peers/adsl
- allow "ifup ppp0"
- added "--with-peers-dir" option
- lock file ($SYSCONF_FILE) if modified by startadsl/stopadsl too (allowing testconnec to work without a specific service)
- simplify parameters processing (no more loops)
- update polish (Lubek) / italian, add brasilian (ericardom)
- man pages are available (+ html)
Todo
- add greek

- change rpmbuild calls (PatriceDumas?) => many problems encountered
- language files should not be executables
- RPM -iUv should remove old drivers?
- on Mdk10?.1, eagleconfig shoud need to be able to use ppp1 (eg when a 56k modem is already on ppp0)
