How do I do that? as for the "2.4.b1" I was just simply reporting what the syslog told me.
And yes, I did "modprobe pppoatm" before calling pppd - the line to do so is in my dial script as per the instructions on the website. (please see original post to link to the ubuntuforums thread to follow what I have done so far to resolve this) I am also running an out of the box version of ubuntu 6.06 without any patches that I am aware of. (I have yet to connect it to the net to download anything at all) Thanks for any help you can give, samadams Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
