well, ive tried using 2.0.35 and ppp works just fine in 2.0.35, im using
the 2.3.5 kernel drivers, and the 2.3.5 pppd binary, with 2.1.125 and
2.1.126, ive tried with 2.3.5 kernel drivers, and 2.3.5 pppd binary, ive
also tried with the drivers that come with the kernel (2.3.3 i believe)
still did'nt work, i also tried with 2.3.3 patched for glibc2 and for the
2.1.X kernels, and it still didn't work, i have /etc/modules.conf setup
properly, well it is according to the other guy who wrote the email about
setting up conf.modules, and what is happening is, it dials my isp, then
just sits there, its like its not setting up the route properly for some
reason, the only other thing i can think of is i havent set /proc/net/XXXX
properly, but i don't know which one to see if its setup properly.. i
think im gonna try loooking at /proc/net with 2.0.35 and with 2.1.125 and
see the differences, and change them accordingly so its the same as 2.0.35
and see if that works, ive run out of solutions, and this is really
pi**ing me off because ive done everything in the Changes file, and other
things, and its still not working... it seems other people have had the
same problem before and haven't gotten theres to work, or did, and told me
how they did it, but i tried whatever they did, and it didn't work.. i
appriciate any more suggestions
