    HELP!!!

    Please save me from my stupidity!

    My modem no longer works in linux at all!

    If your suggestions
    help me, then I won't have go into the long gory details.
    Because I'm working from that dark place called windoze,
    right now, because I'm sick, and also working on a couple
    hours of sleep, I've had to write this e-mail 3 times
    already. It keeps getting shorter each time.

    I was running some tests on the init strings. I do not
    have a functioning kppp at present, and therefore can't
    use its' terminal program. I also don't have any other
    terminal program to directly send commands to the modem
    from the keyboard. Sooo... To run these tests I have been
    editing a -new- copy of wvdial.conf and running wvdial
    from the shell.

    Long story really short...

    Here's what I think is going on. I am now getting errors
    from the output of wvdial (using the tried and true -saved-
    copy of wvdial.conf). I am told that there are errors with
    the name servers and www.suse.de can't be found!?! So now
    I can't use wvdial or kinternet to connect.

    I swear I didn't program the wrong init string in the
    modem, because I am able to get it to work in windoze.
    I went exploring in yast, but I aborted all areas that
    I was clueless about. Well, apparently not all!!!

    PLEASE Save Me!!!

    Bernd
