My neighbour is happy to convert from XP to Linux and I've installed Kubuntu 6.06.1 for him, but I'm struggling with getting KPPP to work (sadly he doesn't have broadband).
The modem from 'lspci' is 'Agere Systems LT WinModem'. /etc/ppp/options is the default file installed with Kubuntu, but /etc/ppp/peers/kppp-options contains: noauth debug The modem appears to connect OK but doesn't seem to be authenticating. KPPP gives the error: 'Timeout expired while waiting for the PPP interface to come up'. ppp.log is (timestamps removed): pppd 2.4.4b1 started by xxxx, uid 1000 using channel 10 Using interface ppp0 Connect ppp0<->/dev/ttyLTM0 sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0xc18f43f> <pcomp> <accomp>] Terminating on signal 15 sent [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "User request"] sent [LCP TermReq id=0x3 "User request"] Connection terminated Modem hang-up Exit I've tried using 'sudo wvdial' and again the modem connects, it starts up pppd but ends with the error: 'The PPP daemon had died: A modem hung up the phone (exit code = 16)'. Help please???? Tom
