I use it with Sprint's mobile card and it works great. It even has the cute little lights that you're so fond of. I have run kppp under gnome before but it does mean that you have to install KDE. I did a bit of poking around and found that there is a 'gnome ppp' out there that seems to provide the same functionality. I don't know if it has the cute blinky lights but it's at <font size="-1"><span class="a">www.<b>gnome</b>files.org/app.php?soft_id=41<br><br>Hope this helps...<br><br>Cheers!<br><br>Bob<br></span></font><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif;

That applet was replaced <br>by a modem app that just takes you to the network-admin and doesn't have <br>the lights, etc..<br> Reasons for all this.<br>1. I setup an ubuntu laptop to use Verizons Mobile Broadband with a <br>pcmcia card.<br>2. Got that working great but I had to make a pppd script to call chat, etc.<br>3. I would like something to show that he's online or not and/or <br>something to click to make the connection and to disconnect. <br>respectively with a light (pic) to designate connected
(green) or <br>disconnected (red).<br>4. It doesn't have to be all inclusive, if he has to click an icon to <br>connect and one to disconnect, that's fine (although I sure any <br>programmer will want to make it all work as concisely as possible).<br>Anywho, all I really want is something like an icon that could change <br>it's pic based on whether a lock file (modem) is in place or not. I can <br>work with the rest.<br>Help please?<br>TIA<br>_______________________________________________<br>nflug mailing list<br>nflug@nflug.org<br><a target="_blank" href="http://www.nflug.org/mailman/listinfo/nflug">http://www.nflug.org/mailman/listinfo/nflug</a><br></div></div><br></div></div><br>
