Help!
I understand that the zaptel package has been masked for a good reason. But belive it or not, I did have it running on another Netra (Sparc64) machine that I have.
I have altered my package.keywords to allow the emerging of the zaptel package, but I receive the following error message and the package does not emerge.
* Your kernel lacks CRC_CCIT support!
* Enable CONFIG_CRC_CCIT!
* One or more of the neccessary precondition(s) is/are not met!
* Look at the messages above, resolve the problem (or disable the use-flag) and try again
Banging my head against the wall for hours on this one! |

You need to recompile your kernel. On my kernel configuration I have activated this as module: | Code: | mail / # grep -i CONFIG_CRC_CCIT /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_CRC_CCITT=m
mail / # |
| Code: | Linux Kernel v2.6.14.4 Configuration

Thanks Steve...
I had a look in my kernel config and could not find anything to do with CCIT, I also went right through menuconfig mode and examined every nook and cranny... I noticed that your kernel version was 2.6, I am only dealing with v2.4.32-sparc would that be the difference?

Do I need to upgrade to 2.6?
Is 2.6 available for sparc? |
