Well, I said the modem module was in my experience creating /dev/ppp but now I remember it is rather /dev/modem.
Sure, /dev/ppp exist here, c type, major 108, minor 0. (using Arch Linux right now) But I don't know how it is created... oh wait: Accordint to http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-fourth/msg03622.html it is created by the module ppp_generic. I believe UDEV allows to give a specific name to the device, but that the kernel would create it with default name, without any user mode UDEV rules. Well, I have quite a fuzzy knowledge of UDEV, don't thrust too much what I say. So, if /dev/ppp is not there for you I would guess you don't have ppp_generic listed in lsmod. Now, I don't know how the module is suppose to be loaded under NixOS. _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
