Question


I just got my modem set up with linux and all appears to be working except that when I start Enlightenment or Gnome, it dials up automatically. I'm using Mandrake 7.2 and an external Creative modem. Any advice or information greatly appreciated!!

Talking

Nope, standalone system. All fine with KDE. I'm connecting with KPPP now, although I prefer Gnome, Gppp doesn't seem to be working despite putting in the exact information about ISP numbers and DNS address's.
