Support knowledgebase (hvogel_dsldod)
Applies to
SuSE Linux: Version 7.2
This article refers to an older version of SuSE Linux.
Therefore some of the informations given in this article may
be outdated or the article may contain stale links.
Kernel: Version 2.2.19
Symptom
The connection fails when you use DSL access with dial on demand in SuSE Linux 7.2, Kernel 2.2.19.
Cause
The cause is an error in the ppp package.
Solution
Try to dial-up without using dial on demand. This can be done by changing
the entry demand=yes
to demand=no
in the file /etc/pppoed.conf
You can also download a new ppp package for the Kernel 2.2.19 from our ftp server or, even better,
from one of its mirrors.
ppp-2.4.0-76.i386.rpm
Please note that your system has been optimized for operation with the proven
Kernel 2.4.4. The use of an older kernel version (such as 2.2.19) may cause other
problems in the system. Please note that you are not entitled to our installation
support service should this be the case.
