I agree, that linux.ie is not the worst thing to mirror stuff like this. Actually i think it
was a howto on linux.ie that i used, when i first had to setup my ZyXEL USB ADSL modem. Worked
right out of the box.

I'll have a look at getting it mirrored there, even though i prefer to keep those howto's on
my website, because from time to time i do update them.
