[Fwd: Re: [hsflinux] ttySHSF0 plays peek-a-boo with kppp]

Since I have not received a reply on this off-list mailing, I will post
it to the list.
Since the time of this original mailing, I find that if I issue the
command 'depmod --all' as root, kppp will find my modem.
My new questions are 'Why does this happen?', and more importantly,
'What can I do so I don't have to issue the depmod command so often?'.
Thanks,
bob

It worked after I did the above. I notice that sometimes kppp can find
the modem and sometimes it can't.
