Recently I purchased a new Intel iMac, formerly I was using a PPC eMac, I managed to install a Kyocera modem driver in order to use my Kyocera Koi as an external modem, everything was running well until I tried to install this driver in the new iMac; I can not make my mac recognize the Koi as external modem (it does as an attached hardware), the extension is also not recognized.

I understand that intel Macs can not recognize PPC extensions, but looking through the extensions folder, the Info of some extensions say they are PPC only. What is going on. There is a way to make this PPC Kyocera driver be used in my new Mac.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Rosetta doesn't translate PPC extensions because the extensions have to get loaded directly into the kernel's memory space. Your best bet is to search for a Universal driver from the manufacturer.
