Network trouble



Please help

I can't find what I'm doing wrong, my debian-woody only looks 
localy for internetnames (www.freshmeat.net), altough accessing 
the internet with ip numbers works fine.

What more than route, /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts must be 
configured?

Im using a winmodem and wvdial for internetconnections. i don't 
think it should matter but I'm using wvdial from debian-potato, since 
the woody release didn't work.

The lynx error looks like this:
------------------------------>
Looking up www.freshmeat.net first
Looking up www.freshmeat.net.com, guessing
Looking up www.freshmeat.net.edu, guessing
Looking up www.freshmeat.net.net, guessing
Looking up www.freshmeat.net.org, guessing
Can't Access 'file://localhost/root/www.freshmeat.net'

nameservers:
