Hi everybody,
It's my first time to use linux and I have looplinux up and running on my
win98 partition. I wanted to download linux version of euphoria but I can't
establish a ppp connection. I keep getting this message "pppd: This system
lacks kernel support for ppp. ..."
I already followed the instruction of INSTALL.TXT on how to get the needed
modules infact they're on /lib/modules/2.2.13/net with the ff. files:
ppp.o slhc.o
I executed depmod -a `uname` -r with no errors, I assumed that everything
was fine until I try something like ppp-go -c.
I know I missed something will anyone be patient enough to tell me what is?
Regards,
Arlie

This won't solve your PPP problems, but couldn't you just download it onto
a floppy disk in Win98, reboot, and then mount the floppy as a FAT/MSDOS
disk under linux. I did this using RedHat 5.1 and didn't have any problems?

Hi Arlie,
have you recently compiled a new kernel? I had a similar problem when I
compiled the 2.3.31 kernel.If so try to re-compile the kernel with some
options like "set version information on all symbols for modules" in the
Loadable Module support section of the kernel configuration script.Read t=
he
documentation related to CONFIG_MODVERSIONS.Maybe there's a conflict betw=
een
your new kernel and your old modules.

I'm not sure but,if you are not using the automatic kernel module-loader,=
you'll
need to load these *.o files manually.The order in which you load them CA=
RES!
Anyway,the best thing to do( due to some big crashes I had!!)
,in my humble opinion is to play with the kernel as less as possible!
