Re: [SLE] Fwd: Re: [SLE] kppp after 7.0 upgrade

      Hi Helgi,

I agree - wvdial IS an old faithful AND a good choice - since upgrading
to 7.0 (using, admittedly, the free give-away which came with last ed. of
'Linux Format'), although I can use kppp, I get a flash-screen which comes
up which tells me my kernel does not have ppp support - which is rubbish.

With wvdial I get no such annoyances.

Regards,

Stephen :-)

In SuSE 7.0 I haven't been able to use kppp which I was used to, this new
kinternet is just a damn mess it seems, unable to use that. So there's just old
faithful wvdial left, and I concider that a good chouce, it only gets better.
Once you get the hang of configuring it it's a beauty, fast and
effective.....:-)

Hi everyone.
The SuSE 7.0 upgrade from 6.4 went well apart from the immediate disconnection
on trying to connect via kppp. Wvdial works fine however from root and I can
browse and get e-mail as an normal user..
Can anyone help? kppp reports that 'kppp deamon died unexpectedly' or 'Timeout
expired while waiting for the PPP interface to come up!' Random messages.
Everything was working great under 6.4. Any help much appreciated.
Thanks, steve.
