[SLE] Loading driver modules
Hi all, I found a linux driver for the internal lucent winmodem in my Armada E500 . I've downloaded the .zip to my downloads directory . The module was compiled for 2.2.12 but it works under 2.2.14 if its force loaded with insmod. Do i need to copy the module to /lib/modules ? Do i need to change anything in modules.conf ?

You don't _need_ to, normally the install script will do it for you along with editing /etc/rc.d/rc.local, which SuSE doesn't use. IIRC, the line should go into /sbin/init.d/boot.local (perhaps someone can confirm that as I'm at an NT box right now) :-(
Do i need to change anything in modules.conf ? No, the line in boot.local will do it.
Good luck, Tim -- 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/faq
