Hi there.
I'm trying to setup a gprs connection thru my provicer's usb dongle.
I've managed ( finally ) to get wvdial connecting. So now what? Should I have an ip address now, or is there something missing?
On ifconfig -a i still have only eth0, eth1 and sit0.

what now?
EDIT:
So, after a while, ifconfig finally shows ppp0.
I tried using dhcpcd, but strangely it only mentions ipv6 ip's???

Rhiakath,
what does | Code: | | emerge net-dialup/ppp -vp |
show ?
If the output includes -dhcp, that would be a very bad thing.

That might be it!
Unfortunately, i can't test it now, since i'm not on my desktop. I'm now trying to get this dongle to work on my laptop, and it got even worse. Now i can't even get the ttyUSB to appear.
here's my output.

Nothing there.
I'm thinking maybe some difference in kernel config. is there anything i should be looking for?

Aaaaaand...
you rule.
I rule.
We rule.
Gentoo rules.
As for the first question, you were right. It was dhcp use flag.
As for not appearing on my laptop, i didn't have the necessary modules compiled. 
Thank you.
