adding new modules (ppp) in kernel

Hi,

I have built new rootfs using rootstock.
I am using kernel from rcn-ee.net. (http://rcn-ee.net/deb/lucid/
v2.6.33.5-l3/linux-image-2.6.33.5-l3_1.0lucid_armel.deb).

Beagleboard is booting fine with this image and kernel almost in no
time. Great! :slight_smile:

Now I want to connect via ppp. But the issue is, when I connect my
modem over usb, I see that ppp modules are not available.

Can anyone help?
How can I add ppp modules in this kernel?

Thanks,
Siddharth

They were never enabled, i don't have a method of testing them..

So, give the uImage and modules hosted here a shot..

-# CONFIG_PPP is not set
+CONFIG_PPP=m
