[hsflinux] Problem loading hsflinmodem drivers on RH9

[Johann COHEN-TANUGI]

well, I tried that as well, but it tells me:
modprobe: can't locate module hsfserial

I don't know much about module loading etc.. and I will try to get some 
more knowledge as soon as I have time, but the thing I seem to understand 
is that modprobe uses /etc/modules.conf as a config file. In the latter I 
have a series of lines concerning hsfserial, written by hsfconfig at 
installation....

alias /dev/ttySHSF* hsfserial
alias char-major-240 hsfserial
alias /dev/ttyCUA* hsfserial
alias char-major-241 hsfserial
alias /dev/modem hsfserial
options hsfserial serialmajor=240 calloutmajor=241

Anything incorrect there?

thanks a lot,
Johann
