IN KDE:
from a term run netcf
when the screen comes up find your ppp0 adapter
check its properties...somewhere in there is a checkbox that says Allow any
user to disconnect/connect this service...or something like that..
another thing you can do is log in as root (stay in console)
establish the connection either manually: #ifup ppp0
or via Kppp or whatever you are using in KDE
shudown KDE
then hit the keys CTR-ALT and F2
it should bring you to another log in screen..log in as a user and away ya go
:)
this assumes that you are not booting to a GUI prompt but rather a console
prompt.
Same problems I had when I started off with linux....
