I am the author of pppoeconf and always look for feasible extensions.
Your driver is fine and I think it can be an official Debian package,
but there are few issues that should be cleared:
- license of the *.bin files. They should at least have a license from
their original vendor saying that they can be threated as editable
data objects under the GPL, including free distribution etc. (this is
the maximum level on non-freeness that we can afford in Debian, IMNSHO)
- decission whether you wish to keep your configuration scripts or be
integrated into existing ppp configuration utilities on Debian
(pppconfig for "advanced" setup, pppoeconf for almost-auto-detected
setup). It is a pity that you reinvented the wheel, IMHO, but your
config scripts look nice and could be used too, although I prefer to
keep ours since they can easily switch to GUI mode by replacing
dialog with gdialog.
Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.
