| 08:57:59 | zebub | is there anybody there? :) |
| 09:00:18 | Kero | hasn't tried fam 0.6, but maintains ppp |
| 09:03:18 | zebub | Kero: can you help me with ppp? |
| 09:04:18 | zebub | Kero: It seems the ppp module autoload fails |

| 09:33:26 | Kero | well, ppp_async is loaded. Have you tried launching ppp? |
| 09:33:49 | zebub | yes... |
| 09:33:56 | zebub | it worked, but... |
| 09:34:42 | zebub | I've changed one entry in /etc/modules.conf |
| 09:35:03 | zebub | alias char-major-108 ppp_generic |
| 09:35:06 | zebub | for |
| 09:35:14 | zebub | alias char-major-108 ppp_async |
| 09:37:00 | Kero | huh? |
| 09:38:09 | zebub | mmmm... i'll try to say things better :-P |
| 09:38:49 | zebub | i've changed a line in /etc/modules.conf |
| 09:39:14 | zebub | before: alias char-major-108 ppp_generic |
| 09:39:22 | zebub | now: alias char-major-108 ppp_async |
| 09:40:24 | Kero | has that, too, but autoload doesn't work, still. |
| 09:41:14 | zebub | Kero: ok... I'll try some more :) |
| 09:44:35 | Kero | zebub: but what is the problem when you get an error, yet ppp works? |
| 09:47:43 | zebub | Kero: Yes, ppp works fine. But I have to load it manually |
| 09:48:09 | zebub | Kero: The module autoload fails with the default familiar configuration |
| 09:49:38 | Kero | zebub: but it succeeds with the changed /etc/modules.conf? |
| 09:58:22 | zebub | Kero: no, with the change i've made the error still appears |
| 09:58:58 | zebub | Kero: but after executing "echo hello > /dev/ppp" the ppp works fine |
| 10:00:34 | Kero | ri-ight. I'll have to try that myself. I guess I have exactly the same problem. |
| 10:00:56 | Kero | by far most people never have to do this. |
| 10:01:21 | Kero | It is claimed an autoloader bug, but rmk3 doesn't solve it :( |
| 10:01:52 | zebub | Kero: Ok thanks :) |
| 13:27:48 | Dymo-dcc | afternoon all |
| 13:28:36 | Dymo-dcc | semi lame question but whats the famliar command to edit a file? i tried the norms vi, pico, edit, edlin |
| 13:56:21 | villager | Dymo-dcc: hmm, not sure, you could try ae... otherwise you'll probably just have to ipkg install the editor you want |
| 13:56:47 | villager | I'd use nano (a free pico clone) |
| 14:00:29 | villager | hmm, I still need to recover my broken familiar install |
| 14:02:09 | Dymo-dcc | thats part of my problem i get get to ipkg until i get it on the network |
| 14:03:23 | Dymo-dcc | it didnt like my 3com card so i swapped it for an old dlink which i used right away, now i just need to get a dhcp server going |
| 17:23:33 | KlnjK | hi all |
| 17:23:45 | KlnjK | how can I access to a pcmcia partition (vfat) from the bootloader? |
| 17:25:11 | KlnjK | I've tried this: boot> copy hda3:/bootstrap.jffs2 root |
| 18:02:11 | Dymo-dcc | anyone have a work around for the postinst failure yet? |
