Hello everyone,

I have a couple of questions that you may be able to help me with:

1) When I try to get online with Kppp as a non-root user I get the much
dreaded 'pppd deamon died unexpectedly' message. Why is that? There are
no problems with Kppp at all when I go online as root.

2a) After configuring WvDial the following line appears repeatedly when
I boot my system; 
modprobe: Note: /etc/conf.modules is more recent than
/lib/modules/2.2.10/modules.dep 

Does that mean I need to recompile the kernel?

b) When using WvDial as a non-root user I get these extra lines during
the dialup;

-->Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
--> --> PAP may be flaky
--> --> CHAP may be flaky

There are no problems with establishing a connection at all, however.

3) The directory /usr/src contains the following files; linux
                                                        linux-2.2.10
                                                        linux-2.2.10.SuSE
                                                        packages
What can I get rid of when I install a new kernel?

I'd really appreciate any kind of help with these issues. Please keep in
mind that I'm a total newbie.
