[hsflinux] Install OK but module not reloaded after reboot

[isagau at free.fr]

Thank for your answer,

but it doesn't work. When i load kppp, i've got an error message "modem" does 
not exist. And another problem is that /dev/ttySHSF0 desappear too. The 
modprobe hsfserial does not work too, it said that hsfserial does not exist.

What do you meam by "you just need to activate the modem device in kppp" ? In 
kppp i take the parameter to modem.

Hi,

Mandrake uses devfs. This means that the nodes in /dev are created
dynamically after the modules are loaded by the kernel. The modules are
loaded automatically when you try to access the devices.

You don't have to reinstall the drivers after each reboot, you just 
need to
activate the modem device in kppp. You can also run "modprobe 
hsfserial" to
load the modules manually.

Hello,

I've installed Mdk 9.1 and i have got e little problem with my winmodem
connexan HSF Chipset based Olitec PCI V92.

I have installed the HSFLINMODEM-5.03.27 RPM driver.

No problem when install, it does works and it create this files :
crw-r-----    1 user   tty      240,  64 avr 27 14:40 ttySHSF0

and the node

lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root            8 avr 27 14:31 modem -> 
ttySHSF0

I take the parameter for connexion in kppp and i run connexion, it does 
work
correctly. But whan i have shut down the computer, after reboot the
computer,
this two files desappear, and i have to install again hsfconfig for to 
find
this two file and for connect the modem

however the file /etc/modules.conf is as follows :

...
alias /dev/ttySHSF* hsfserial
alias char-major-240 hsfserial
alias /dev/ttyCUA* hsfserial
alias char-major-241 hsfserial
alias /dev/modem hsfserial
options hsfserial serialmajor=240 calloutmajor=241

How to make so that these files are not removed during the extinction 
of the
system. Or rather so that the module does not discharge or takes care 
with
starting of linux.

I have looking messages with dmesg and /var/log/messages, but i haven't 
see
the
problem.

Thank.
