[ILUG] tcpdump and CONFIG_PACKET modular

[Niall O Broin]

I have a SLES box on which I'm trying to run tcpdump. However, when I do

tcpdump -i eth0

I get

tcpdump: socket: Address family not supported by protocol

A little research shows that I need a kernel with CONFIG_PACKET enabled 
to allow tcpdump to work. The kernel on this box has CONFIG_PACKET set 
to m in the kernel config file.

So, what module do I load to enable CONFIG_PACKET?  Or what else needs 
doing?
