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