[SLE] Kernel 2.4 and no ppp0 interface
Hiya SuSE ppl, Since putting Kernel 2.4.0-test1 on my machine I haven't been able to connect to the internet. I use kppp and it fails on the pppd daemon with the message: Couldn't find the interface ppp0: No such device I've enabled PPP support and support for async serial ports in the kernel but still no joy. Any ideas?

I believe the name of the module have changed, it is now called: ppp-async or sometime like that. Looke under /lib/modules/your_kernel_version/net for the proper name and change it accordingly in modules.conf.

I've enabled PPP support and support for async serial ports in the kernel but still no joy.
Any ideas?

I gave up using recent 2.3.xx kernels for the same reason. Then I discovered the documentation! There is a special section on PPP in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes. -- Never trust a man in a suit -- cll -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
