Don't you just love sentence fragments? They're so very.
Seriously, ignore the partial. I was going to say I might would also
purge/reinstall the ppp-related stuff, but then I remembered that wvdial
is more-or-less standalone (I think).
Well Kent, you were right about everything. And, I feel mentally
deprived as I should have tried
a purge/reinstall before posting.
wvdial is now working and I can call it up from $ as user. I'm going to
post the wvdial output you
requested, on a working system, so that anyone having this problem can
see what should be on a working
wvdial: (Note: still no /.wvdialrc in /home/lchata/) (note2: I still get
the warning about can't write PAP-secrets
and Chap-secrets-Permission denied, when calling wvdial as user. I know
its harmless and I have gotten rid
of it before. What is the Debian preferred way to do this?)
