I did an "apt-get upgrade" and, now, when I execute "pon",
my modem won't connect. The modem seems to be making
the same connection sounds as before the upgrade;
also, the modem is working in Window98.
I have syslog records from before/after the upgrade.
After upgrade, I notice this message:
kernel: ttyS: 1 input overrun(s)
In the remainder of this posting,
I provide the following information:
- miscellaneous command-line
- /etc/ppp/peers/provider
- successful syslog before the upgrade
- unsuccessful syslog after the upgrade
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've run dry
on ideas and am on the verge of doing a reinstall of Debian.
