Re: char-major-5
These were the steps I followed to solve the problem. Thanks to Colin for his
help!

With ppp as a module, try putting the line "alias char-major-108 ppp"
into /etc/modutils/aliases and running 'update-modules' then 'depmod -a'
to see if that solves the problem. (modprobe reads from
/etc/modules.conf, which is generated from /etc/modutils/* by
update-modules, to determine where to find modules.)

Hello!
Do you resolve this problem? I have the same. I added /dev/ppp c 108 0,
but nothing changes.
