Hi!
Printing with apsfilter does not work for me any longer after
doing my regular package upgrade in woody. I have noticed that
lpr, libcups2 and some other printing related packages have changed.
The printer does receive data, but is not able to handle it.
It seems like that the data that is se

Hi!
pppoe seems to be the same as rp-pppoe. Is this correct?
If so, why is the GUI interface tkpppoe missing? Is there a separate
package available for it? I could not find it in woody ...
Thanks in advance.

If you get the error message 'SIOCADDRT: Invalid argument' at boot time:
That comes from the command 'route add -net 127.0.0.0' or something
