Hello to all! I have recently installed SuSE 8.2 on a Panasonic CF R1 sub-notebook (dual-boot for now, but hoping to get rid of the other OS in due course). Most things are working fine, but unfortunately the modem is a winmodem (not a real modem, I know :) ). From the vendor/device list at www.yourvote.com/pci/ it seems that this is an LT 56k winmodem with a chipset 1456VQH19R-1(INT). uname -r reported that my kernel version is 2.4.20-4GB, so I went to heby/ltmodem/ and downloaded ltmodem-kv_2.4.20_4GB-8.26a9-1.i386.rpm. Then when I do: rpm -i ltmodem-kv_2.4.20_4GB-8.26a9-1.i386.rpm I get the response: Failed dependencies: k_deflt=2,4,20-4GB is needed by ltmodem-kv_2.4.20_4GB-8.26a9-1 What is happening, and what should I do next? [please don't say 'get a different/real modem' :) ] Help please! - and please keep it simple -- this is my first experience with Linux :) best wishes to all, Des Kenny

If you have an AMD processor, your kernel package is called k_athlon, not k_deflt. If you can find a ltmodem package for that kernel, try it instead. Otherwise you can try to force your way through it, but I wouldn't recommend that as a first try, so I'll give the detail only if you can't do any other way. Let us know how it's going. - -- Thibaut Cousin Web : http://www.thibaut-cousin.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/WE0XfBjEv/Ah2egRAvsGAJsEIS2ZuV1seIc6m+kw7LJ8Vg0G5QCcC8l7 THa7KbO+dX9eug7CWb6ZCSU= =OZtP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
