[expert] GNOME, PPP, and modemlights_applet
Kernel: 2.2.9-27mdk GNOME: 1.0.4-7mdk I am running PPP using ppp0 and modemlights_applet does not work -- no blinking lights. I cannot find any help on it -- netscape reports that it is not in /usr/share/gnome/help/modemlights_applet/... So, how do I get it to work? The properties for the applet on my panel correctly tell it to monitor ppp0. What else is there? It has access to /dev/modem -- at least I do so it should. Thanks for all help in advance. Al

Chmod > has no effect on recognising it either. Hmm. I though all the /dev/hd*'s were supposed to be chmod 660. At any rate, if you can't even chmod, you're not working as root. And if you are... Heaven help your file system. -- Hampton
[expert] GCC 2.95
Hi, How difficult would it be, and wat problems would it cause to update the pgcc to the new gcc2.95 I'm really looking forward to using the new gjc front end and improved c++ features but I don't want to break my compiler and libs. Also, will we see a mandrake rpm for it? Sheldon. -- == Sheldon Lee Wen #include "My opinions are not necessarily those of my employer" ==
