I love my g400 max. Matrox is always the leader in 2d, and this carddoes

could someone tell me how? that would rock.

Hi Martin,
I did it that way and now he not longer complains about missing
modules, great! But now my 3com network adapter (which is included in
the kernel) is not longer initialized, so no eth0 ;-) with 2.0.36
this was a module and everything worked fine, but how do start the
network adapter now?
I have just upgraded my Samba to a 2.0.4 stable version. The old one
must have been running for a year or two, not sure which version it was.
At first I panicked because al my passwords refused to work. After some
RTFM I learned that Samba now holds a seperate password file smbpasswd.

Recompiling your kernel is not an extreme thing to do, it is actually very
easy (if of course you know how, which is explained very good in the
kernel-HOWTO). I think it is also wise to compile a new kernel after
installation, because the standard kernel is a kernel that works with most
computers,

Did you, by any chance, install the Debian CD that came with McCarty's
apt-get install linuxconf
that's the package that contains netconf and all those other nifty tools
that come with redhat flavours.

Not that I'm an expert on sound, but maybe some of this will help you to
make a comparison to your situation. I have an ES1370 card (Sound
Blaster PCI64), and as far as compiling the kernel is concerned, all I
needed to enable were two things; overall sound support and my specific
PCI card.

Second question: Use modconf
First question: I actually don't know (I always just edit
/etc/init.d/network) but you could start the installation again and only
configure the network and skip the rest, there might be a easier but...

Check your /etc/init.d/modutils, during installation you selected some
modules to be loaded into your kernel at boot time, when upgrading to a
new kernel, such a file isn't changed, so it's looking in
/lib/modules/2.2.14 for modules that are now in your not a module but
right in the kernel.

You should use the tecra kernel (resc1440-tecra.bin) to boot or if you're
using the cd, just use cd 2 (scsi-mod) and everything should work fine.

You can do 4 things:
1) Compile a kernel with ppp (see kernel-HOWTO)
2) Do: insmod ppp
3) Do: modprobe ppp
4) Do: modconf (and then add the ppp module)

How do I instruct apt-get to use a proxy server instead of directly
contacting the host?
Thanks

Consult the Modem_HOWTO. Perhaps it is a plug-n-play modem? Maybee it is a
modem that
is likely not to be able to work under Linux?
