[SuSE Linux] HELP needed!
Hello, I recently bought SuSE 6.0. I decided to upgrade to kernel 2.2.4. Anyway to cut to the point..... The kernel upgrade went fine, and everything works great except...... My modem is on COM 3 and IRQ 10, UART 16550 (all is set correctly via setserial at boot time). I can use the modem and it works fine. However when I try to connect to my ISP via PPP I get a LCP: Config-Request timeout. I did not have this problem before the upgrade. I went ahead and upgraded to the new pppd, but it did not fix the problem :-( And PPP support is built into the kernel, and it inits ok at boot time. Any help or suggestions would be great. I am wondering if maybe the new kernel changes some of the /dev/ settings and it is making the modem not connect. But like I said, I can use minicom to dialout. P.S. Going to Windows to check email or use the web is not fun.... P.P.S Going to Windows at ALL is not fun.... Any Help is greatly appreciated. -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

What does you ppp-options file contain? I'm always running the latest kernel (which is 2.2.5 at the moment) and I never had any problems. But from what I've seen from other people. One of the most common reasons for pppd failing are unnecessary (that is, sometimes bad) pppd options. Even if you haven't changed them, we should have a look at them. Henning -- H.
