Hi *,
I own a IBM T20 laptop running SuSE 8.1. I now like to get the internal modem up and running but struggle doing this. When I try to install the binary for the modem I get a "Failed dependencies" error - see below.
I grabbed the binary from http://www.heby.de/ltmodem (following the link to the SuSE binaries).

Have you installed the suse kernel sources? You should find it under Development->Sources in YaST2, kernel-source. Installing that might solve your problem. Cheers, -- --Jyry C:-( C:-/ C========8-O C8-/ C:-(
