Unhappy KGET Stalled, no resume


Hi,
Having finally gotten KGET to do something under Suse 93, I now find that when the dial up connection is lost and reconnected, KGET goes to a STALLED' state on current downloads and does not retry to resume the download.

KGET's reconnection options are set to retry.


Any ideas, anyone?

Thanks

That's what I thought, but it always resets to 1 (minimum). I've set it at 9999. No matter, however, as it never retries once the connection is dropped and then reconnected (usually a delay of about 30 seconds).

Anyway, it may not matter as I finally got some good news about broadband yesterday. Fingers crossed.

Thanks for the feedback
