x86 strace > wvdial
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

it seems that wvdial compiled and merged fine, but when i goto run it, it
segfaults. with strace, it fails to compile everytime, and i can't figure
out why. i am using the downgraded automake and a build snapshot
tarball from achim. it boots and allows me to get a shell finally, but i
can't get on the net yet :(

any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi Bryce,

Make sure you read /usr/src/Linux/Changes and add the required aliases
for ppp to
/etc/modules/2.4.3-ac11.
I did not test wvdial, but I tested kppp with ppp and it worked fine
here.

bye achim~
