If in /etc/modutils/aliases you have: alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate but you don't have such modules in /lib/modules/<kernel>/net/ then you may get such error. On the other hand, if you do have such modules, but do not have the alias lines above, simply add them to the file and run update-modules (the errors should go away). -- Eric G. Miller <egm2@jps.net>
