Re: The PPP negotiation failed, coz serial loopback was detected

Yup, I cbf going to terminal all the time to type it.

I've given up on Ubuntu anyway, I reformatted the hdd, back to NTFS.

I just havent got the patience to deal with it.

If I decide to reinstall it I backed up all the updates on this PC under XP.
So, I wont have to spend hrs downloading 300 or so mb again.

Hey all, I'm using Ubuntu Feisty.

This PITA program called KPPP keeps bringing this error up when it
connects.
I got sick of the damn script bit in this program. I deleted everything in
it.

Now KPPP connects and says pppd starting or something, BUT with the above
error. I've done a search on Google/Yahoo. There's HEAPS of queries / ppl
with the same prob. BUT, I cant find a solution!

Anyone know what I should be looking for or what file to edit (if thats
what
needs fixing), to fix it??

pon and poff works fine, I can connect thru terminal.

BUT, I would rather have something with an Icon, (I've got PPP-Gnome and
KPPP, which I might as well delete). Since neither can connect!

It is trivial to add an icon. Just right click on the desktop
CreateNew->Link to Application and then fill in the blanks.
pon for example. Add or create an icon picture and you are done.






Any info appreciated

Cheers
