<0> but i can't seem to find a place to enter it
<0> how can i set it up ?
<1> oic
<1> I'd have thought that was a function of the DSL router
<0> i don't have a router :\
<0> I have an adsl modem and that connects to my Ethernal PCI card
<0> and the modem is connected to the phone line
<0> thats all
<1> and the credentials arent in the modem either?
<0> nop
<0> i thought i would be able to put the user name and p*** in linux itself
<0> and then connect
<0> can't i ?
<1> WHat did you use previously, Windows XP?
<0> yea
<1> and you set this up via the network connections right?
<0> i'm on winxp now and i have fedora installed too
<0> yes
<1> hmm
<1> there has to be a way to do it, have you checked the forums, google, etc?
<1> You really SHOULD get a DSL capable router too, as a firewall if nothing else
<0> hmm i tried searching but nth :)
<0> :(
<1> Im digging around in my box now seeing if I can find a place to do this
<0> thats nice of u, thx mate
<1> the couple of places I'd think it would be have nada, hmm
<1> it might be a special add-on module or something
<0> <vague> FunkySurd: i think magickal1 already told you what to do, 11:45 <@magickal1> pppoa rather
<0> <vague> 11:46 <@magickal1> kde has a GUI that can handle it
<0> wad does he mean by that ?
<1> KDE is one of the desktop environments you can run in Linux
<0> hmm
<0> so i should give that a try
<0> ... :\
<1> hmm, lemme think
<1> Did you do an default instal of FC3?
<0> yea
<0> i mean i only removed office tools
<0> thats all
<1> Do you remember it asking you which desktop to install?
<0> nop :(
<1> because you may have been able to pick between KDE and Gnome
<0> oh
<0> so how can i install and make sure it's kde
<1> you can install KDE after the fact using yum tho
<0> but i can't get online how can i use yum
<0> :(
<1> well, you'll have to do some reading first, I'd suggest fedoraproject.org/wiki/ and www.fedoraforum.org
<0> alright sure
<0> just one more ques
<1> you can always do a re-install
<0> how can i check if it's kde or gnome i have ?
<1> Linux is like this, it can have a steep learning curve
<1> heheh I knew you'd ask that, I think it's in /etc/sysconfig/desktop
<1> look for the DISPLAYMANAGER entry
<1> should say Gnome or KDE
<0> oh okie
<0> thx
<0> so if it's kde then which program do i use to connect ?
<1> No idea, I'd try and find a solution within Gnome first if that's what you're using
<0> hmm ok
<0> thx alot :)
<1> good luck
<1> browse around those sites, there is probalby some info there
<0> ok ;)
<0> Rathenn: I can't seem to find anything that i need from that site :(
<1> google it
<0> i tried googling but it's really not working for me
<0> for most reason is because i'm a newbie to linux and i don't understand much]
<1> Well, Im sure someone here will eventually be able to help you, it is a good resource
<1> but 1/2 of linux is finding out the answers on your own
<0> i know :(
<2> fedora installs gnome by default
<1> I thought so
<0> ouch
<1> Im sure gnome has a way to do it though, how could it not
<0> how can i install kde if i don't have internet connection then
<2> why do you need kde?
<2> install it off the cd
<2> the rpm packages are on the cd you downloaded
<0> I need to connect to the internet, and i don't have a router, just adsl modem connected to my Ethernal PCI card and i need to feed in user name and p***word
<1> He can't connect via his PPoE/DSL
<2> and you need kde for that?
<0> do i?
<2> no
<1> Somene told him he did
<0> i don't know cause i'm new to linux totally
<0> someone on #linux told me
<2> haha
<2> probably because THEY use kde
<0> oh ok
<0> can u tell me the way to do it ?
<2> you can connect that way with any window manager
<0> apc: which application in fedora will i need to run to work it ?
<2> go to your gnome menu
<2> system tools
<0> ok
<2> internet connection wizard
<0> ok
<0> and then ?
<2> choose xDSL and away you go
<0> oh okie
<2> no one will walk you through it totally
<0> and will i be able to put username and p***word
<2> you need to do things on your own
<2> that is part of the appeal of linux
<0> thanks for the starting push anyways
<2> if you get stuck .. ask for help
