Hello,
Can anyone help with this strange problem ??
I've been able to get my linux box to function in most ways and
today I ran "compile kernel" by clicking on compile kernel in the KDE
X-window. I selected all the appropriate bits that I thought were
necessary and then let the compile run to it's end. I then re-booted
the machine.
When the machine came back up it immediately tried to dial my ISP
which it did, and then couldn't log in.
I re-started the KDE desktop and found that Kmail had stopped
working. Then dialling started up to my ISP once again without me
touching anything.
When I click on the pppd option and connect to my ISP manually
(which is the way it should be) I can sit here for along time whilst
I'm still connected. However, as soon as I start XF Mail and click
on "check mail" or "send mail" the pppd dies and gives me an error
message.
Anyone know what to do with this one ? (stop laughing down the back
of the room there). I know, I could go and get some treatment or
advice from my doctor. But, I'm getting used to standing on my head
in front of the monitor and I like it that way.
Lets hope that the 6.0 distribution comes along soon :-)
Thanks in advance.
