I'm using the Gentoo linux distro, which custom builds and installs the needed packages as you specify. According to their docs, I've installed all of the packages that I need to. Are you saying this is a library/package issue or a kernel/module issue. If the first, tell me what packages I need. If the second, tell me what modules. Thanks for your help. I will get this working somehow ;) Harold On Fri, 2003-09-19 at 16:48, Harold Martin wrote: > I'm using the Gentoo linux distro, which custom builds and installs the > needed packages as you specify.
