With RH8.0 I use the modem_light_applet which works just fine. I don't think that the "case case" (Uppercase vs LowerCase) could be the problem since I think "Name" parameters are just used for display only.
I'm very new to RH 8.0. I'm just now stepped up from the install list to RH list. I don't work with programming on a daily basis, though I do understand some of the basics - I'm actually a nurse by profession - so there is a lot in the Redhat/linux world I don't know. So please bear with me if some of my questions in the future seem "stupid". I someone who likes to try new things and experiment a little bit. I'm in the learning mode:) The problem I want deal with right now is a little thing. Seems like I'm not the only one to get an error message when using the KPPP link on the desktop (as well as the taskbar). Someone by the name of Nicola posted the following back in January - she described the problem well, so I've simply copied that part of her message: "the connection works, but anytime I close kppp, I receive an error message like "KDEInit could not launch 'kppp'" (and while I'm connected, desktop icons desappear and come back only when I close kppp!). The weird thing is that this error occurs only when I run kppp from a desktop link, and never is running from the menu. (the error NEVER occurs if logged as root)." Did this problem get resolved? When I looked into the "kde-Kppp.desktop" file, I noticed that KPPP was also written Kppp and kppp. <snip> BinaryPattern=kppp; Name=KPPP Name[af]=kppp Name[eo]=Interretkonektilo Name[sv]=Kppp Name[xx]=xx MimeType= DocPath=kppp/index.html Exec=kppp %i %m Icon=kppp <snip> Could it possibly be related to that? Any help is much appreciated.
