That's your problem then. Perhaps Redhat 9 includes the module but it is lost :); perhaps it includes it but it wasn't built by default, and you'll have to build it; perhaps it doesn't include it and you'll need to install our package from our website. If you don't know how to do this it will be a good learning experience :) good luck mds Jennifer Villar wrote: > I get the following error even though I believe I ran it before without > error. > > modprobe: Can't locate module w83627hf > > Attached is the dmesg file.
