[Gllug] Linux 2.4.12 & ADSL

[Hall RJ]

The latest kernel patch failed on one hunk due to an extra if statement that
wasn't in previous versions.   But that was simple to add the line manualy.
The problem I was having was with the pppd establishing the connection it
kept saying that it was assuming the ppp0 was already up and then failing to
connect.

Eek!

I am supposed to be doing this this evening. What was the problem? Guess
I'll stick to 2.4.2 or whatever linuxdude.co.uk mentions...
