IIRC, some module build scripts/Makefiles look at /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build But, I suppose it's easy enough to look over those scripts and Makefiles before building. So I need th ltmodem kernel module, plus I also need a binary driver. Is that correct? Do I still need to use the fix script to modify the binary so it doesn't complain about my kernel version? I think I'll lobby for it to be a law that all HOWTOs include a date. -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
