I moved them (just in case) emerged the new ppp package and everything worked |
13 |
fine until I upgraded gcc (but that's another story). Now my ltmodem comes |
14 |
up with this error: |
15 |
================================================ |
16 |
# modprobe -v ltmodem |
17 |
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.17-gentoo-r7/ltmodem/ltmodem.ko |
18 |
FATAL: Error inserting ltmodem |
19 |
(/lib/modules/2.6.17-gentoo-r7/ltmodem/ltmodem.ko): Invalid module format |
20 |
================================================ |
21 |
I'll recompile my kernel (in case it needs to be recompiled with the new gcc), |
22 |
rinse and repeat - but I am drifting away: Yes, move the files and proceed |
23 |
with the emerge. I had no issues whatsoever and the dial up connection |
24 |
worked fine following the emerge. However, your mileage may vary. |
