Bonjour a tous,

I'll write this in English so everyone can read it.
I am rebuilding my Gentoo linux system now after a HD crash. Connecting
to BT openworld works fine under Mandrake, but with Gentoo, after
modem_run, pppd does not do anything.
I have checked and re-checked the config files for ppp, they're
identical to the ones Mandrake has. (speedtouch-1.1, ppp 2.4.1).
The modules are loaded correctly, usbdevfs and /dev/pts are mounted
correctly as well.
modem_run goes as far as obtaining the line sync ok. And that's the last
line I can see in /var/log/messages. When I launch pppd I am immediately
returned to the prompt, and no extra lines are added to the
log/messages. ppp.log is created but empty. So is connect-errors.
Therefore I am stuck :(
Has anyone got ideas to help me investigate this issue? Maybe this has
occured before? I know other Gentoo users don't have that problem, but
then there's few of them using the speedtouch usb AFAIK.
English or French (or any language for that matter) are not a problem.

One thing that might help, the ppp-2.4.1 in Gentoo is automatically
patched with pppoe support, is there a conflict there? (I don't know if
this was the case the last time I built a system)

thanx/danke/merci for any help!

Michael
