To configure PPPOE follow these steps..I use PPPOE at my place since the last 2 years in Fedora core 5 and Ubuntu . I ll first describe how I did it in Fedora ..then I ll also describe how I did it in Ubuntu... U ll also need a lil help from Winblows... 1] In windows....run "raspppoe" or "pppoeconf" from start menu and click on "Query Services" ..Note down the relevant access concentrator name , and the service name for your provider. 2]In any fedora system , run "system-config-network", In the GUI you get, select New interface , and in the list of connection types, select XDSL . 3] In the GUI that follows , enter the username and password, and also other stuff like activate on boot., allow all users to activate the device etc.. Then click on OK , and click on "save" from file menu 4] Now double click on the interface you just created and in the "advanced" tab, enter the access concentrator name and service name you noted down from windows. Again save the configuration from file menu. 5] now just run "system-control-network" (from menu or terminal ..ur choice :) ..) ...you will get GUI to turn you PPPOE connection on/off. PS : in the menu;..."system-config-network" ==>menu->administration->network "system-control-network" ===> menu->system->network device control METHOD FOR UBUNTU... 1] download latest rp-pppoe (version 3.8 afaik) from http://www.roaringpenguin.com/penguin/open_source_rp-pppoe.php 2] On a standard system....just run "go-gui" from the package , it will give you GUI for PPPOE where you can enter all the relevant fields like username . passord, AC name , service name etc.... and just hit connect If "go-gui" doesnt work..... 3]Run following commands in the rp-pppoe-3.x folder from terminal... cd src ./configure make make install (as root) 4]Now try running "go-gui" In my Ubuntu dapper system, "go-gui" worked fine , and I did'nt need to compile anything much.... Hope this helps....... Please feel free to post any more doubts about this ....

how to setup raspppoe internet on linux?
by krishnakant Mane 27 Sep '06

27 Sep '06

hello all. I have a machine with 2 lan cards one for internet and the other for internal lan. my isp uses raspppoe for internet connection. I believe there is a way to get my ubuntu, debian or knoppix system connect to the internet over ras PPPOE? one lan card has a static ip 192.168.0.2 and is used for my internal network. I have right now un plugged the cable from this card. the one that connects to the internet via ras PPPOE has no IP statically assigned by my isp. it seams to get it dynamically when I use their diler from my desktop. how can I set it up from the command line? since I don't have a gui based screen reader for linux, I have to do it from the shell. thanks, Krishnakant.

blender - an apology
by Kenneth Gonsalves 27 Sep '06

27 Sep '06

hi, sometime back I had highly praised blender, but had criticised the interface as non-intuitive. On using blender i find i was wrong - the interface is intuitive and suprisingly easy to learn. The reason why i had got that impression was, that i had tried it out two years ago with a borked install, and with an unsatisfactory tutorial. The tutorials now available rock. And blender rocks. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate, NRC-FOSS lawgon(a)au-kbc.org http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/

Fedora Core 1 did not detect the sound card, but Fedora Core 2 and now Fedora Core 5 work fine. Sometimes, I do not get sound but that is easily fixed by going to the 'detect sound card' menu in GNOME and increasing the sound level using the slider there. Funnily the after exiting the utility, the slider goes back to where it was but the thing does not go mute. I suggest you try tinkering with any such utility if you have. Otherwise you might try the 'alsamixer' utility too. I use ALSA on my Fedora Core 5 system. > BTW, my modem is also not detected, but thats not an issue since I > don't need it. I understand HP has the drivers on their site. Same here with me. But the supplied driver works just fine. Cheerio, Debarshi -- Microsoft does have a Y2K problem... it's called GNU/Linux!

I use a Compaq notebook. Here are its details: Model no: Compaq Presario 2203AL Motherboard: Intel 855 GM with Intel Xtreme 2 graphics Procesor: Intel Pentium M 715 1.5GHz Memory: 256 MB 266 MHz Storage: 30GB serial ATA IDE drive at 5400 rpm Pointing device: Synaptic touchpad Network interface: Internal modem, Realtek RTL 8139C ethernet card, Intel PRO 2100 3B mini PCI adapter wireless LAN card (IEEE 802.11a/b) Micellaneous: IEEE 1394 Firewire port, external monitor (secondary display) port, S-Video output, 2 USB ports. No serial/parallel ports, and no bluetooth/IR support. Each and every piece of hardware has worked on GNU/Linux, and HP was good enough to give me Linux drivers for the modem and the wireless LAN card. On Fedora systems I have had trouble getting the graphics hardware to perform at its optimum level, although on Ubuntu systems things work fine. Regards, Debarshi -- Microsoft does have a Y2K problem... it's called Linux!
