<p class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>Can you dialup to your ISP without using KPPP? If you cannot, then perhaps KPPP is not the culprit after
all.</p></li><li><p>Have you gone through the KPPP documentation

suggestions?</p></li></ul><p>The KPPP handbook is available through the
TDE Help Center.</p><p>If you still encounter problems, then the following might help:</p>
<p class="variablelist"><dl><dt><I>How do I change the MTU setting in KPPP?</I></dt><dd><p>Open up the KPPP dialog box and select
Setup. Choose an existing account and click
Edit, or New to create a
new dialup account. Select the Dial tab and
click Arguments. Type what you want to change
in the Argument textbox (e.g. <strong class="userinput"><code>mtu 296</code></strong>) and
click Add. When you are satisfied, click
Close.</p><p>To check whether the options took, do one of the following:</p>
<p class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>In a terminal window, run
<strong class="userinput"><code><strong class="command">/sbin/ifconfig</strong> ppp0</code></strong> and look
at the reported MTU in the output. It should match your
request.</p></li><li><p>Add <code class="option">debug</code> and <code class="option">kdebug</code>
(each on a separate line) to your
<code class="filename">/etc/ppp/options</code> file and restart your
PPP session. You will find debugging messages in
<code class="filename">/var/log/messages</code>, including MRU and MTU
settings.</p></li></ul><p>If you want, the MRU and MTU settings can be added to the
<code class="filename">options</code> file, one complete setting per line, no
quotes or dashes.</p></dd><dt><I>KPPP connects at a slower speed than
normal.</I></dt><dd><p>The following might do the trick:</p>
<p class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>Try executing <strong class="command">setserial

which maybe too large
for a dialup connection. Try changing it to a smaller value like
<strong class="userinput"><code>296</code></strong>
or <strong class="userinput"><code>576</code></strong>.</p></li><li><p>Check in your <code class="filename">$<code class="envar">HOME</code>/.trinity/share/config</code> for the
<code class="filename">kppprc</code>. Ensure the correct modem speed is
actually defined there.</p></li></ul></dd></dl></td></tr><tr class="question"><td align="left" valign="top"><a name="idm140487997539488"></a><a name="idm140487997539168"></a><b>11.2.</b></td><td align="left" valign="top"><p>Konsole</p></td></tr><tr class="answer"><td align="left" valign="top"><b></b></td><td align="left" valign="top">

the target application, place the mouse pointer to the

Alternately, highlight the text by dragging with the left mouse button down and
paste by clicking with the middle mouse button (or both buttons if you are using a
2 button mouse with 3 button emulation).
</p>
<p class="note" ><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>Note that the copying and pasting keyboard shortcuts use the
<strong class="keycap"><strong class="keycap">Shift</strong></strong> key. That is because in traditional Unix terminals,
<strong class="keycap">Ctrl</strong>+<strong class="keycap">C</strong> is used to break or stop
a process from running.</p></dd><dt><I>Why can't Konsole find the 9x15 and the 2
console bitmap fonts installed with TDE?</I></dt><dd><p>FontConfig must find the three fonts
installed in: <code class="filename">$<code class="envar">TDEDIR</code>/share/fonts</code>.
If
the TDE install does not install these fonts in a directory that
already exists (e.g. <code class="filename">/usr/share/fonts</code>) then you must add this
directory to the configuration file <code class="filename">/etc/fonts/local.conf</code>. This should be
the first line after <fontconfig>. For example:
<pre class="programlisting">
<fontconfig>
<dir>/usr/trinity/share/fonts</dir>
</fontconfig>
</pre>
After adding the directory, run (as root):
<strong class="userinput"><code><strong class="command">fc-cache</strong> -v</code></strong> and check that
it found the directory.</p></dd></dl></td></tr></tbody></table><table width="100%" class="bottom-nav"><tr><td width="33%" align="left" valign="top" class="navLeft"><a href="configure.php">Prev</a></td><td width="34%" align="center" valign="top" class="navCenter"><a href="index.php">Home</a></td><td width="33%" align="right" valign="top" class="navRight"><a href="sound.php">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="33%" align="left" class="navLeft">Configuring TDE</td><td width="34%" align="center" class="navCenter"><a href="index.php">Up</a></td><td width="33%" align="right" class="navRight">Troubleshooting sound problems</td></tr></table>
