One of my biggest gripes is getting my modem to connect. If I use kppp
the connections work every time, but in order to have kppp I need a lot
of unwanted libraries(although KDE is a great environment it is not my
choice for use) Other dialers offer easy set up but NONE of them have
been successful in connecting. I have yet been unable to figure out how
kppp can connect with such ease and others fail even with much
configuration changes. I've tried gkdial wvdial pon poff. Since I love
icewm because of low system use the added load of using kppp and all its
dependencies really irks me.
