I have been successful installing the Kernel, in generic mode, and getting X up and running. I cannot, however, seem to get my modem (USR 56k fax int. PnP) to respond to the ppp dialup utility in Gnome...any suggestions? Also, while reading the manual(gasp), it suggests adding some lines to my /sys/dev/conf/generic file and re-compiling the kernel....how does one re-compile the kernel? Is there a command for this or do you simply re-start the system? Thanks, /Dan ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
