Thanks again Dan. Modem works now!

I am not sure whether I am asking this at the right place. The question is
about "mol". Since I changed the kernel. I recompiled
mol-0.9.59-1a.src.rpm and mol-kmods-0.9.59-1.src.rpm. Now when I startmol
after molvconfig, this is the stdout/stderr.

Do you think that I can do something here to get it working / should I
wait for an update! Thanks very much.
