had some helkp from before, but couldn't get to the pc in time to try and fix... get an error message saying that the ppp stuff isn't in the kernel, just doesn't exist or something like that... hey pacranch, how did you you set up the ppp in amigo??

Hi HackerAngel

If you're trying AmigoXP, check out here:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=332617

and see if that helps. If you're using Amigo2, it just slid in for me, not a problem of any kind.

Hope this helps,

Mike (pacranch)

Sorry, using Amigo 2 .... you say it autmatically worked??

one other thing... i am using the bare.i boot image from slackware to boot into amigo... could this be a problem??

The bare.i boot floppy should work, although there is a boot floppy image for Amigo-2.0 on the download page also which has more options turned on.

To set up a dial-up connection, run ispsetup and answer the few questions, ISP phone#, username, and password and the port location of your modem. You should be able to find this out by looking at the /etc/sysconfig/amigo and /etc/sysconfig/hwsetup files.
Then, to manage the connection, use ppp-on and ppp-off. Do this first (briefly!)as root to test.
You can use yawmppp to make/break and monitor the connection as well.

ok... i'll try the other boot floppy image..

how do you get to the download page??

Here's the link for the Amigo-2.0 boot floppy:

i tried to check for the ppp module using /sysmod/somecommand -ppp and it said that it wasn't there.

When you get back to trying to go online, do the pppsetup one. I had nojoy with ispsetup (my ISP uses static DNS), so maybe that's it. Be sure to know your static DNS, pppsetup requires them and some ISP's do too.

ok, Windows doesn't provide a Static I.P. address, all i have is Primary D.N.S and Secondary D.N.S. It says server provided I.P. What do I do??

O.K. I have the PPP installed. Go to run ppp-go and get an Connect Script Error message. What does that mean? and also where do I check to see if it is detecting my modem right?

this is out of my /var/log/messages file:

can you tell me what "terminating on signal 2." means? Because I have a feeling my modem isn't being found by Amigo...

also I get a response from YAWMPP or whatever it is when I do a demand dial..., oh and each time I try this, I can pickup the phone and hear the dial tone, so that's not an issue is it?

and apparentely my modem is made Conexant... never heard by me at least...
