Never had to fiddle with audio or wi-fi in OpenBSD. But I have used config mainly to set the timezone offset(-330).

You need to install and run pppoeconf [http://wiki.debian.org/PPPoE] and then you might have to start pppoe connection $ sudo pon dsl-provider ..

I have got audio working several times with this approach. No need to have kernel source code or recompile the kernel to have new features. I figure out the audio device's response to hardware configurator stage whilst booting using $ dmesg -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech web: http://gayatri-hitech.com SpamCheetah Spam filter: http://spam-cheetah.com ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe " in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

When I upgraded the kernel, the remaining little space in my / (root) became full and since I had not created separate partition for tmp, gdm was unable to write to it. And samba also became iunaccessible due to this. When I deleted the kernel bz2 package, it freed some space and now both are working.

[Ilugc] Debian 5.0+network manager+ pppoe
Hi, i have been trying to configure one of my friend`s broadband connection in Debian 5.0. His ISP provided his line with "dial-up-type". That means, he needs to login in order to connect to internet. He has been using this in Windows. Now, he installed Debian 5.0 there; but he cannot configure his internet. I took a look and tried like this way: 1. installed pppoe 2. went to network-manager 3. opened network-manager; selected pppoe and gave username and password 4. tried to *select that pppoe; but i cannot enable it. I mean, i put a tick just beside of it and the tick is gone!! i mean, i cannot enable that pppoe connection there in Debian 5.0. * -- Best, Zico ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe " in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
