EXPLANATION OF LIST SIGNUP PROBLEM: I apologize about the signup on linmodems. I originally signed up from my work email bterrell@xxxxxxxxx on October 1 and spent a month reading. My first email to the list was ll/2, with the accidental Subject heading Greeting! I did not understand that Subject: should have "name YourCounty kernel". My work email is on Groupwise, and I could not get the HTML turned off, so I added my Yahoo account and turned off all HTML. Part of the problem was the incorrect Subject line, so your system does not sort to the proper experts. Subject line should now be corrected. RE: Please send directly to the List, so others with expertise can contribute. If I am STILL NOT sending directly to the list, please let me know. MY ACTIONS AND DEBUG: I guessed and blacklisted ipv6, but eth0 still comes uP. I am running kubuntu, so use KPPP instead of Gnome-ppp. I can use either one, and can do so on a system with any distro of Ubuntu you would like. I have one sitting here with Edubuntu and Gnome-ppp I can use if you request. Both KPPP and wvdial produce the same disconnect (and Gnome-ppp and wvdial on Edubuntu), and both still leave the phone line and carrier active. KPPP does not give me a disconnect message, wvdial does. wvdial leaves the phone line and carrier active after presenting the DISCONNECT message. LISTED BELOW: "cat /etc/wvdial.conf"; "sudo wvdial 2>1 _ tee wvlog.txt"; "cat wvlog.txt", "cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist"; "cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-modem" NOTE I have added nothing to this, do not understand what a "useless driver" is; "lsmod"; "lspci | grep -v bridge"; "lspci | grep -v USB"; "lspci | grep -v RAM"; "cat dmesg.txt" Anything else you need, let me know.
