I have a ~x86 box that is dial up only and uses ppp. Last weekend an
'emerge -uD world' seemed to complete without issue but now I can't make
a ppp connection as seen by the error attached below. I admit to not
knowing my way around udev yet & what I've read isn't helping with this.
I'm guessing I need to recreate something somehow. Penetrating
insight... Does anyone see what it is I'm missing that causes the
udevd-event[9376]: wait_for_sysfs: waiting for
'/sys/class/net/ppp0/device/driver' failed
error below? There's no ppp0 directory under /sys/class/net/ but I
don't know what creates it.
Thanks very much,
Mike
