You can edit /etc/mod.conf (from memory) to get rid of those modprobe warnings, but it shouldn't actually affect SLIP working, They are just an alias for particular network procotols I think. I've had those warnings for many kernels and SLIP still works for me (just couldn't be bothered fixing the file, was waiting for some debian thing to do it for me :)) Andrew -- Of course...lager...the only thing that can kill a vindaloo. -- Lister, fighting the vindaloo monster in Red Dwarf `DNA' Andrew Howell [EMAIL PROTECTED] Perth, Western Australia [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
