Thanks for that Tim. I will see what I can achieve from the resources you pointed me to.

Bal, the questions you are asking go beyond the specific expertise of certainly me, and to an extent this list. I'm not saying don't ask, just that you sound like you need some intensive hand-holding in order to get started, first you need to train yourself up to ask questions in a way that will get you the answers you need. The problems you are facing are really similar to what I had to do when I first started using Linux, many of them, once you've figured them out, you will probably thankfully forget. I'm like this with PPP - Nowadays I will do anything I have to, including buying a different modem, to avoid having to configure PPP. However, the fact that your other three installs work out of the box, makes me think that a normal network connection should work - I don't know how to check for these things properly - If a window opens up in gkrellm, I assume its working. ;] I found my local Linux Users Group very handy for these sort of problems - eth0/ppp configuration is very similar in all Linux distros. The first two links here were essential for me to understand how to get the best results out of mailing lists and the software you have installed for troubleshooting purposes. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/reference http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://wiki.debian.org/ http://www.linux.org/ And for A/DeMuDi specific questions, of course there is users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - although you will probably get repeats of the same answers that you just got here, but if you really think you have hit a bug that would be the right place to mention it. Sorry, I can't be any more immediate help on this subject, good luck! cheers, tim hall /|\ __________ NOD32 1.1431 (20060305) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com ___________________________________________________________ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de
