From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010809 Description of problem: modemlights_applet could not find the pppon/pppoff script/application. So I changed it to ifup ppp0 and ifdown ppp0 to work around this. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install RedHat 7.1.94 BETA (Rosewell Release) (CD from Cheapbytes) 2.Configure dial-up connection (System-Settings -> Internet Configuration Wizard) 3.Right click on bottom pannel and select (Applets --> Modemlights) 4.Click on the left hand side of the modemlights applet (it fails) 5.Right click on the modemlights_applet, go to properties and note it uses 'pppon' and 'pppoff'. If you change it to 'ifup ppp0' and 'ifdown ppp0', then all is well. Or add a 'pppon' & 'pppoff' script. Actual Results: nothing,.. the applet fails to dialup since the pppon/pppoff scripts are missing. Expected Results: Dialup connection and change to a green light, and get a IP address as found in /var/log/messages or via ifconfig Additional info: Perhaps pppon/pppoff are just for some reason missing from my system. I used the Installer to install (fresh install). This was with the default system installed. FYI... after I got modemlights working, I did upgrade to 2.4.10 kernel and it has been working wonderfully. (I had to patch with the ext3, it was to use a different firewall with IPTables).
Fixed in 1.4.0.5-2
