Mandrake 9.2 does not provide a quick access menu for dial-up internet.
I tried to install Wvdial in Linux Mandrake 9.2, but it never worked.

Tried most of the Helpful Hints and FAQ's.
Added Stupid Mode, user permissions , secrets files, options etc..etc..
But the PPP daemon dies with an error related to /etc/hotplug/net.agent: (attached /var/log/messages )
