ppp, netscape,HD
Firstly, is there a package for netscape 4 (the program - I can only find
the base files on my cds) around?
More importantly, I am having problems with configuring ppp - my
/var/log/messages file shows this:
Aug 27 00:51:30 is pppd[1498]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0
Aug 27 00:51:30 is pppd[1498]: Using interface ppp0
Aug 27 00:51:30 is pppd[1498]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
Aug 27 00:52:00 is pppd[1498]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
Aug 27 00:52:00 is pppd[1498]: Connection terminated.
Aug 27 00:52:00 is pppd[1498]: Receive serial link is not 8-bit clean:
Aug 27 00:52:00 is pppd[1498]: Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0
Aug 27 00:52:00 is pppd[1498]: Exit.
Everything worked OK under redhat6.1 Any ideas where the problem might
lie?
Another unrelated problem - My harddrive seems to have a habit of pausing
for a few seconds every now and again (originally every half hour or so,
but seems to be happening more and more frequently now) - error msg given
to the console and /var/log/messages is:
Aug 27 08:40:43 is kernel: hda: timeout waiting for DMA
Aug 27 08:40:43 is kernel: hda: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest }
This started b4 I installed debian - is my HD on the way out or a
misconfiguration problem?
