Info
Info from Package Maintainer tpowa
Please don't change the docu without notifiying me. IMPORTANT: These modules were built for the latest arch stock kernel 2.6 You have to rebuild the package for other kernels or have to stay with the old kernel until a new package is provided.
Installation
You need the ltmodem package from the [extra] repository:
pacman -S ltmodem
Configuration
In your /etc/rc.conf: Add
ppp_generic ltmodem ltserial
to the MODULES=() list.
Additional Notes
If pppd quits with an ERROR 1 just after connection, change
auth
to
noauth
in /etc/ppp/options or use the call option (see the pppd manpage).
If you don't want to set the permissions of your modem you "can" set /usr/sbin/pppd setuid but this may be a security risk, you have been warned!!!
