    I would like to installa the pctel driver on my laptop.
    The installation seems to work, but when I try to install
    the kernel modules 'pctel' and 'ptserial' I found the
    following warnings/errors:

    --------------------------------------------
    [root@idsia pctel-0.9.7-9]# insmod -f pctel
    Using /lib/modules/2.4.22-10mdk/misc/pctel.o
    insmod: a module named pctel already exists
    ---------------------------------------------

    and

    ----------------------------------------------------------
    [root@idsia pctel-0.9.7-9]# insmod -f ptserial
    Using /lib/modules/2.4.22-10mdk/misc/ptserial.o
    /lib/modules/2.4.22-10mdk/misc/ptserial.o: unresolved symbol
    tty_register_driver
                    _Rb4974513
    [...]
    /lib/modules/2.4.22-10mdk/misc/ptserial.o: unresolved symbol
    tty_wait_until_sent
                    _R15685c15
    /lib/modules/2.4.22-10mdk/misc/ptserial.o:
    Hint: You are trying to load a module without a GPL compatible license
          and it has unresolved symbols. The module may be trying to
    access
          GPLONLY symbols but the problem is more likely to be a coding or
          user error. Contact the module supplier for assistance, only
    they
          can help you.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    Have you some different hint for me?

    And it is the problem in the driver or in Mandrake?

    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Alessandro
