Hello, I just switched from Slackware to Debian. Before that I switched from Redhat to Slackware. Redhat is still my favorite, but my RH CD is scratched and won't install. So I am trying new things. I am using Debian 1.3. X won't work. I try to use the Config program, but when it says it is switching to Graphics mode, it exists with can't connect to server errors. PPP won't work. I am using the same PPP scripts that worked with both Re dHat and Slackware. With Debian, they start and wait a couple seconds, then t hey quit. They never do any dialing. I have the correct location of chat an d pppd (/usr/sbin/).
