I can completely confirm this, WvDial eventually kills with an error 15. --> Disconnecting at Sat Nov 11 17:22:24 2006 --> The PPP daemon has died: Lack of LCP echo responses (exit code = 15) --> man pppd explains pppd error codes in more detail. --> I guess that's it for now, exiting --> Provider is overloaded(often the case) or line problem. --> The PPP daemon has died. (exit code = 15)
Now normally it could just be a crappy ISP posing the issue, but it's too conveniently timed after intensive CPU or disk use. this may also have to do with the slmodem-daemon locking up entirely requiring a few lines of command or a restart. -- if computer hangs, sl-modem-daemon looses internet https://launchpad.net/bugs/47808 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
