Re: X and PPP Problems w/ Debian 1.3



1) I can't help you with the X problem.
2) About the ppp problem:
To begin with, read the help available in /usr/doc/ppp and try the pon command 
as root. Report the result to the list (unless you can solve the problem 
yourself from there).

	Hope this help.
