Hi After many tries my dial up modem is working with the serial port under kernel 2.6.9.
The problem I still have is that I have to set up the modules with insmod: insmod /lib/modules/2.6.9/kernel/drivers/serial/serial_core.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.9/kernel/drivers/serial/8250.ko to have the connection with pon. Alternatively, I can change the modprobe.conf file with "install serial /sbin/modprobe --etc && {...}" to "install serial /sbin/modprobe 8250 --etc && {...}" to install it. Otherwise I get "modprobe fatal error running install command for serial, pppd failed to open /dev/ttyS0 no such device or address" in the syslog. What is the best way to have the serial support as a module ? I have found the corrections above in other messages, but I suspect I loose the advantage of compiling the serial port support as a module if I load it on start. Thank you for any illuminating explanation on that matter ! Francois -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
