Hi, I have two basic problems with my SuSE 5.2 installation. 1. I cannot find the PPP module anywhere to load it. 2. I am trying to compile the PPP support into the kernel itself, so I do not need to load it as a module, but when I issue the make dep command, I get an error message saying missing 'as'. Can anybody provide me with the location of the PPP module? and/or Can anybody tell me what do I need to have loaded in order to compile the kernel? I am running Linux on a Dell Latitude XPi, which is dual boot WIN95 Linux. I only had 500Mb available in the HD for the linux partition, so I do not have the whole system installed. Please HELP!!! I really want to make it to the Internet using LINUX! Regards and thanks!

the "as" it's looking for might be what's called the "assembler" and if it is you need to install some more packages. </guess mode on> lessee here dave:/root # which as /usr/bin/as dave:/root # rpm -qfv /usr/bin/as binutils-2.9.1.0.4-2 o "as" is part of "binutils".
