Anyone got an idea how to get internet to work with 7.3? Already tried everything, deleted ippp and recreated it. Obviosly the nameserver cannot be found - thogh it is indicated as it's supposed to. The installation was an upgrade from 7.2 and - besides this - went without problems. I heard a rumor that there would be a faulty version of 7.3 which should not have been sold to anybody and went into sale only by error, but SuSE denied this.

Does anybody know some more about this ??

After your suggestion about my modem woes, I upgraded smpppd but still wvdial is reporting Invalid arguments and failure to open the modem device. I re-installed the whole system again, but to no avail. And now your email implies the Internet won't work anyway. I've now got a useless Linux operating system that means reverting to windoze for Internet access. My own conclusion is that Suse has f*cked up with 7.3 and I, for one, am NOT happy. I held off from upgrading from 7.0, so things could become better, and they do seem to have on the surface (a la M$), but something major seems to have gone wrong with this distro and the Internet. Perhaps someone from Suse would care to respond? Peter
