   Try that:

   $ mkdir axepad && cd axepad
   $ wget http://www.picaxe.com/downloads/linaxepad.tar.gz
   $ tar xzf linaxepad.tar.gz
   $ ./LinAXEpad

   You can also click on LinAXEpad from the file manager to execute the binary.

   I downloaded it.
   It is a .tar.gz file.
   Extracted it and (Duuuuuh)
   No install needed.
   It just runs.
   That's a switch ?

   People will start thinking your lazy if you always want confirmation before doing anything.
   You learn when you fail not when you succeed.
   If it fails then post what you tried and how it failed.

   Error text:
   modprobe: module ftdi_sio not found in modules.dep
   So you need kernel module called ftdi_sio.
   Search for file with this name: http://pkgs.slitaz.org/search.sh?file=ftdi_sio
   Bingo!
   Package called “linux-dialup” contains file you need.
   So let's install it.
   Open terminal. To become super user type command su and press Enter key. Then type super user's password (note1: password is root if you not changed it; note2: password input is hidden, its OK) and press Enter key.
   Now type command to install package mentioned above:
   tazpkg -gi linux-dialup
   Press Enter. And if you have internet connection package will be installed from SliTaz repository.
   To exit press Ctrl+D twice.

   Hi hitsware,

   Maybe kernel module not match kernel version? What is your output of the next command?
   uname -a

    Searching net, possibly you need
    depmod -a
    after package (with kernel module) installation. And then try your modprobe again. All as root user.

    @hitsware
    The kernel version your running 2.6.37 is 4.0
    The module package you installed linux-dialup-3.2.53.tazpkg is from 5.0-rc2
    The kernel version and module version must be the same to work.
    Slitaz kernel module package: linux-<type>-<kernel version>.tazpkg
    The packages you install while running the 2.6.37 kernel must come from the 4.0/stable repo.
    Open terminal,su to root user,connected to internet.
    tazpkg remove linux-dialup
tazpkg clean-cache
tazpkg set-release 4.0
tazpkg -gi linux-dialup
    This should install linux-dialup-2.6.37.tazpkg

    Still the same problem.
    Thanks guys for the help,
    but on a closer look at
    AxePad, I don't think it
    will do what I want, so I
    won't spend more time on it.

    MegaRegards :)
