Here is the modules.conf file:
pre-install pcmcia_core CARDMGR_OPTS=-f /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start
alias sound-slot-0 dmasound
alias eth0 gmac
alias usb-interface0 usb-ohci
I added the alias serial mac_serial to see if it would work. It did not. It
reported that the modem could not be found in kppp. In minicom it said there
there was no such device as ttyS0. Once again I used the Mandrake Control
Center and after running the connection setup and connecting from there, I
can connect fine. I notice that now I have /etc/modules.conf~ which is the
same as listed above.
