&kppp; Many &tde; users report problems using &kppp;. Make sure you have already checked the following: Can you dialup to your ISP without using &kppp;? If you cannot, then perhaps &kppp; is not the culprit after all. Have you gone through the &kppp; documentation and followed the instructions and troubleshooting suggestions? The &kppp; handbook is available through the &tde; Help Center. If you still encounter problems, then the following might help: How do I change the &MTU; setting in &kppp;? 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 (⪚ mtu 296) and click Add. When you are satisfied, click Close. To check whether the options took, do one of the following: In a terminal window, run /sbin/ifconfig ppp0 and look at the reported &MTU; in the output. It should match your request. Add debug and kdebug (each on a separate line) to your /etc/ppp/options file and restart your &PPP; session. You will find debugging messages in /var/log/messages, including &MRU; and &MTU; settings. If you want, the &MRU; and &MTU; settings can be added to the options file, one complete setting per line, no quotes or dashes. &kppp; connects at a slower speed than normal. The following might do the trick: Try executing setserial spd_hi. The default &MTU; value is 1500, which maybe too large for a dialup connection. Try changing it to a smaller value like 296 or 576. Check in your $HOME/.kde/share/config for the kppprc. Ensure the correct modem speed is actually defined there. &konsole; How do I page-up or page-down? Use ShiftPage Up and ShiftPg Dn. How do I copy text from &konsole; to anything else? Use the mouse to select the desired text. From the Edit menu, select Copy, or press &Ctrl;&Shift;C. This places the text in the &tde; clipboard, &klipper;. Next select the target application, place the mouse pointer to the desired location and press &Ctrl;V. Alternately, highlight the text by dragging with the &LMB; down and paste by clicking with the &MMB; (or both buttons if you are using a 2 button mouse with 3 button emulation). Note that the copying and pasting keyboard shortcuts use the &Shift; key. That is because in traditional Unix terminals, &Ctrl;C is used to break or stop a process from running. Why can't &konsole; find the 9x15 and the 2 console bitmap fonts installed with &tde;? FontConfig must find the three fonts installed in: $TDEDIR/share/fonts. If the &tde; install does not install these fonts in a directory that already exists (⪚ /usr/share/fonts) then you must add this directory to the configuration file /etc/fonts/local.conf. This should be the first line after <fontconfig>. For example: <fontconfig> <dir>/usr/trinity/share/fonts</dir> </fontconfig> After adding the directory, run (as root): fc-cache -v and check that it found the directory.
