nvidia-kernel-1.0.8178-r3 is the current ~x86 version, and works fine
with gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1.
Hi all
I have the need to configure my USRobotics internal modem (pci card) for
faxing. Running "lspci" the modem is not seen.
Should I load any module or enable any kernel entry (during the installation
of Gentoo I used genkernel)?
Where may I find documentation on this topic?
