I've been using diald 0.16 under Linux 2.0.xx for a couple of years now
quite successfully. But while testing my upgrade to 2.2.1, I can't get it
to go. Hope someone can help. I'm glad I can still use my 2.0.35 environment!
I built V2.2 with glibc 2.0pre7 and built diald 0.16 + the patch I got off
this list also. All my other stuff is updated, as specified in the requirements
for V2.2. The following log is using pppd 2.3.5, and modutils 2.1.121.
Anyway, it *seems* as if diald 0.16.5 is much slower than I'm used to. My
primary question is why is modprobe looking for a module ppp0? What is that
all about? Until I get V2.2 working better, I've built everything right into
the kernel, rather than as modules. This means I've included ppp, slip and
even ethertap directly into the kernel. None are built as modules. So why
is pppd, I suppose, looking for the module ppp0? How do I build that one anyway?
When I request to build ppp as a module does it build a module ppp0?
Under my old 2.0.35, I have a module ppp, not ppp0.
Also, under /lib/modules - I have the following modules built:
bsd_comp.o, dummy.o, ppp_deflate.o
I'm pretty sure they are related to ppp, but again, I requested ppp to be built
into the kernel directly until I get more confident about V2.2. How'd they
get built as modules then?
Next - what's with those "route add" commands? I know "route" changed, but I'm
not issuing those commands. Is diald? Or pppd? What can I do about them?
Why does modprobe log time in GMT rather than local time? That gets confusing.
Anyone solve that?
I guess diald is not really causing problems, but I'm having a hard time connecting
to my ISP in the V2.2 environment (well - I can't at all!!) and the people on this
list seems pretty helpful.
