that's all that you should see with wvdial. its part of the connection is
done and ppp is running. the fact that your browsers don't work is a network
issue--your machine can't see where it is or see any other machine.
post your /etc/resolv.conf. maybe that's screwed up.
just because you switched from one linux to another is not a reason to
abandon certain basic configuration files. do you have backups for any of the
config files involved in dialup when you used suse? if not, you should make
it a habit from now on, given that it's a real pain in the ass to have to
manually reconstruct those over and over.
