I've just recently upgraded to MDK 10 Official and have upgraded all my kde
files.

Since installing 'kdenetwork-kppp-3.2-17.1.100mdk.i586.rpm' I've experience
problems with the dialler. After installing the /etc/ppp/options were changed,
(cann't remember exactly how it went in the 3rd line but it was something like
this:

                lock
                noauth
                n***default
[where * = a letter])

and now does not want to always connect.

If I use 'wvdial' to connect and then disconnect and try 'kppp' I can then get a
connection with it sometimes.

Has anyone else experienced problems with this upgrade and if so how did you
overcome them if you have.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] MDK_Updates]$ cat /etc/ppp/options
lock
debug
noauth
defaultroute
lcp-max-configure 45
ipcp-accept-local
ipcp-accept-remote
idle 600

[EMAIL PROTECTED] MDK_Updates]$ These settings were given by a linux knowledgeble helpdesk person from my isp.

The .100 in the version number suggests to me that you are using thacs.rpm. Is this true? If so then you may have to consider updating all of kde from thacs site or uninstalling that rpm and issuing:

# urpmi --excludemedia thacs.rpm kdenetwork

I like thacs rpms but have struck a few incompatable probs when using only some of the kde rpms, [ Lost kdeinit when I updated kdebase and not kdelibs for example.]

Sometimes the odd rebuilt rpm from any site doesn't quite make it as backwards compatable so go the whole hog or try things out installing to a different location and starting it manually until you are satisfied it works.

Be warned, I am extremely newbie in these matters so if you find out different to the above please post so that I might learn more.
