Applies to
SuSE Linux: Version 6.3
This article refers to an older version of SuSE Linux.
Therefore some of the informations given in this article may
be outdated or the article may contain stale links.
Kernel: Version 2.2.13
PPPD: Version 2.3.10
Symptom:
Either when you boot SuSE, or when you look in the file
/var/log/messages
, you see the following message:
modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-108
Reason:
The PPP Daemon is capable of supporting generic devices (such as
/dev/ppp), however, the current kernel version (in SuSE 6.3) is not. This
feature will be available in future kernels. Even though the PPP Daemon
complains about not being able to find this device, it still works fine.
Solution:
This message is not caused by an error, and it can therefore be safely ignored.
