| |
I should have known I was talking too soon when I said I could run PPP w/ kerneld on 2.1.16 without any problems... now, on 2.1.17, if I start pppd I get "this system lacks PPP support" even if modules.dep and modules.conf seem to be set up OK...
I upgraded then modules from 2.1.8 to 2.1.13 but no news.
Then I tried insmod'ing slhc.o and ppp.o, which succeeded but even though ppp0 came up with P-t-P OK, I could not ping my ISP (no send LED blinking on my modem) and I got these

etc, etc, until I rebooted into 2.1.16 which has no trouble in dialing up my ISP and talking (btw with modules 2.1.13 now).
Did I do anything dumb in building 2.1.17 ?
Thanks in advance,
