Description Gerald Teschl 2000-12-26 13:45:04 UTC
There is no longer a "ppp" module in 2.4.0. Hence pppd should try to
modprobe ppp_generic (if ppp fails) in case the kernel is >= 2.2.4.

Comment 2 Nalin Dahyabhai 2001-01-10 23:49:36 UTC
This should be fixed by an internal ppp->ppp_async (which should depend on
ppp_generic) alias in new modutils packages.  Please reopen this bug if you find
that this is not the case with modutils-2.4.0-1 and later.
