Hi,
I trying to set up diald. I had to recompile my kernel to enable
slip support. I made it a module. I did
make mrproper,
make config,
make dep,
make clean,
make zImage,
make modules,
make modules-install.
It looked to me as though they all terminated normally. I can boot from the
new kernel no problems. The boot up messages tell me that diald is being
started. However, `ps -ax | grep diald' reveals nothing.
/var/log/daemon.log tells me:
Sep 13 02:55:46
modprobe: no dependency information for module:
"/lib/modules/2.0.30/net/slip.o"
In /var/log/messages:
Sep 13 02:55:47
diald[112]: SLIP not supported by kernel, can't build proxy.
diald[112]: Diald is dieing with code 1
I don't know if this is pertinent, but in /var/log/degub...
Sep 13 02:42:10
kernel: Max size:324376 Log zone size:2048
kernel: First datazone:28 Root inode number
57344
/var/log/diald is empty.
Can anyone tell me what I did wrong with SLIP ? Here's the configure
details from /usr/src/linux/.config:
# Network device support
#
CONFIG_NETDEVICES=y
CONFIG_DUMMY=m
# CONFIG_EQUALIZER is not set
CONFIG_PLIP=m
CONFIG_PPP=m
#
# CCP compressors for PPP are only built as modules.
#
CONFIG_SLIP=m
CONFIG_SLIP_COMPRESSED=y
# CONFIG_SLIP_SMART is not set
# CONFIG_SLIP_MODE_SLIP6 is not set
Thanks,
Gerald
