Eric, Thanks for the response. I ran `dpkg-reconfigure sysvinit' but it did not bring up the screen to request an addition to inittab, so I don't think sysvinit is the one. Besides, when I installed debian on a previous laptop, the question never appeared and I'm sure sysvinit is common to both. So it has to be a package that I installed on the one but not the other. I guessed it to be ppp but running `dpkg-reconfigure ppp' doesn't bring the screen up either.
Any other ideas? Thanks.
