I tried typing kppp and ppp in a terminal, but nothing happened.
I did "Menu-Drake" and now have a entry in "what to do..." for connect to the 
internet, but nothing happens when I choose it.
How do I do the equivalent of "run" in windoz?
Thanks for the answer

On my office machine 9.1 upgraded flawlessly, except that I had to 
reconfigure the printer.

At home I had to do an install, probably due to those nvidia drivers I 
mention earlier (I could probably have solved it by downloading new 
drivers and hacking a bit, but it was easier to do a clean install, then 
download the drivers at my leisure).

I lost the KPPP icon, but after I'd started it once from the console, it 
came back the next time I logged in).

The installer didn't like my hand-compiled version of lyx 1.3.0 and made 
me remove it.

Mounted media seem to take a while before they are read.

Mozilla 1.3 classes this list as junk mail ;-)

Other than that, no problems so far.  It's generally a very nice distro 
indeeed, and well worth the wait.
