wvdial worked on Ubuntu but won't work on SUSE
Hi:
My computer previously was able to dial in to my ISP, using wvdial, from either Windows XP or from Ubuntu Linux. I replaced Ubuntu with SuSe, making sure that I kept a copy of wvdial.conf when I did so. Under SuSe, I ran wvdialconf to make sure the relevant settings were the same (they were). When I ran wvdial from the terminal window, I could see NO CARRIER right after the password was sent. After going through the modem and ISP configuration in YaST, I am now trying to use kinternet and see basically the same result in the log file that it produces (included below).
I created and tested a new dial-up connection in Windows to make sure I had my username and password correct.
When I dial in from SuSe the noises made by the modem all sound normal and identical to those made when I dial in under Windows.
I cannot tell if my end or my ISP's end is hanging up.
Does anyone have any ideas about where I should look or what I should try to get this to work with SuSe?
Thanks for any help,
