[newbie] Kernel Errors (No Sound or pppd)

[David R Underwood]

Hello, When trying to setup my sound card and trying to connect to the internet using kppp I get a pppd server closed unexpectedly error because pppd isn't compiled in to the kernel. sndconfig says my kernel is not compiled to support sound. . I installed Mandrake 6 as an image file. /mnt/cdrom/lnx4win Any help is appreciated and I thank you in advance. God bless! In Christ, David R Underwood
