No! Please dont.
At my local library, rex is the only distro that works on the 386sx that
we have for people to telnet out and check their email. It uses a dialup
(ppp) connection.
Every blinking time I upgrade to 1.3, I *cannot* make pppd dial out. And
when I dial out by hand, pppd wont take the bait and finish flipping the
line over to the right protocol.
I keep having to downgrade to 1.2.
I even saved the binaries for "chat" and "pppd" from the 1.2 and copied em
over to /usr/bin and overwrote the new bins after upgrading to 1.3, and
that *still* didnt solve anything.
So I think we really need to keep 1.2.
Please? Thanks =]
