So, what? we better include ppp and not wvdial?
No, it will definitely help if it's included - you just have to make an exception and try to fit it in with the rest of the packages in src/core/pkg (ppp is already part of base, whereas wvdial is in extra). Perhaps a request to bring it into core in light of cases like this?
Then probably we should move wvdial to core just like ie. pppoe stuff is in core, no need for a special exceptions. And then we'd include it in the package list for archiso. Having it in /src/core/pkg on the iso will be a good sideeffect, not a primary goal. I suggest someone who is into this stuff takes over, because I don't really know what i'm talking about.
Dieter Why to have a second app for dialing in core if ppp can handle already this stuff?
Just my 2 cents. greetings tpowa
PPP can be configured to dial, but one needs to be a super geek I think. As I told you earlier, here in India, wvdial is supported officially, because it automatically detects the required settings. Change Username, Password and Phone Number. That's all, and you can have latest packages if you do an FTP install. -- Regards, Nilesh Govindarajan Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/nilesh.gr Twitter: http://twitter.com/nileshgr Website: http://www.itech7.com Cheap and Reliable VPS Hosting: http://j.mp/arHk5e
