I'm not 'disagreeing' on Buchan's point, but as i don't know where it
comes, and i don't know how to correct it (except providing the first
answer ...), i'll ask you one question :

Should this behaviour be fixed ?

I'd say yes.
How should it be fixed :
- If it is gnome's problem, gnome must be fixed (RC1, remember it ???),
same thing for others program ...
- If it is because of no hostname (which is not asked by default when
you set up an RTC modem connection), the post-installation process
should take this into account.

I'm not able to code it, or track it down, but I INSIST, this is a BUG,
there is no point in arguing about it.
Now please let's focus on the way of fixinf it.

Thanks for your attention.
Stef
