Some more info. This Serial Line Internet Protocol from Linux NET2.
It's used for dial-up connection by modem. I will enable a modem
connection when I've upgraded the kernel for USR 3CP5610A support--but
not yet. Even so, this does not look like a valid interface
configuration. Where did it come from? Below is the /proc/modules file.
nls_cp437 3896 2 (autoclean)
vfat 9008 1 (autoclean)
slip 7424 2 (autoclean) <<----
slhc 4436 1 (autoclean) [slip] <<----
af_packet 6048 1 (autoclean) <<--??
lockd 31100 0 (autoclean)
sunrpc 52420 0 (autoclean) [lockd]
serial 19564 0 (autoclean) <<--??
eepro100 15644 0
tulip 29860 1
unix 10212 10 (autoclean)
Arrows point to possible villains. tulip and eepro100 are the only
modules in /etc/modules.
I think I know what's doing the damage. I don't know why it's doing
what it does, where the offending files are, or how to fix it. Well, I
do suspect /etc/rc*.d/, but can't pin it down--may be buried in
something else?
I'm hurtin' here folks, please help.
