I have also been unable to get the Gnome dialer to work. The Kppp dialer
works fine and set up with no problems. The last time I tried it, the
Gnome dialer did dial but immediately dropped the connection. This has
happened every time I've tried it. On another computer I no longer use
on which I had Linux installed briefly, the Gnome dialer wouldn't work
at all, but Kppp dialer did.
I don't know anything about the underlying problem. My modem is a 56K
hardware-based external connected to com 2. The other computer had an
ISA plug and play real modem, not a Winmodem.
