Hello, I have been having some problems here and would like to hear of your thoughts. The latest pppd gives me the following message after a first pon <provider>:
Can't open pty slave /dev/pts/0: File or directory not found Well, in fact that happens only after the first pon, then goes away. But the kernel keeps sending these ones after every ppp call: Feb 1 20:04:24 cdemo modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-108 And I've also got several mouse problems. I've adopted the solution of running gpm as -R and then selecting the mouse as /dev/gpmdata when configuring x, because if I haven't done that, I couldn't switch between x and the console (I could, but then I would come back and x would freeze. *always*.) But that is really annoying, because the mouse now bugs x just like it bugs the console (random pasting, and all that gpm trouble :(), and the following startup errors: -em1 "The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:" -emp "> " -eml "Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server" keymap/xfree86 /var/tmp/xfree86.xkm' Warning: /dev/gpmdata unable to get status of mouse fd (Invalid argument) (after exiting x11:) waiting for X server to shut down cdemo:~$ X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). So it quits like if it was killed, when all I've done was select "Exit" (so x should quit normally?). I'm also obligated to kill gpm every time I run another application using the mouse without going thru gpm, like quake/quakeworld, and then rerun it when I quit the game. If you are able to give me some help with any of these problems, reply to my normal mail address (I am not currently subscribed to debian-user, because of its very high traffic). I'd appreciate any help. Thanks, -- Carlos Laviola [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you want my PGPi/GnuPG keys, finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] --
