Re: USB-Modem, slusb and kernels later than 2.6.24

Hi Antonio,

thank you for the link. The slusb.ko is compiled now. But a "make
install" only installs the slamr.ko into the
/lib/modules/kernel/extra-directory. Even when I copy the module
manually, modprobe doesen't find the module:
modprobe slusb

Do you have any ideas?

Regards

Bernd
