pppsetup wont run on Tiny Core 2.6
« on: December 01, 2009, 05:00:11 AM »
I have just started using Tiny Core 2.6

When attempting to run pppsetup, it does not run, and the following message is generated.

Can't find 'dialog', i can't run without 'dialog' on your system.
You can get a compiled ELF version of 'dialog' from here.

pppsetup runs on Tiny Core 2.5

I recently updated the pppsetup extension, to automatically get the IP addresses of the domain name servers. In both cases, I used the new updated version.

To check if it is not the new extensions, I used the extensions I had been using on Tiny Core 2.5, and got the same message.

I save my settings by making a new extension with my settings. ppp works by copying the extension with my settings from Tiny Core 2.5.

But if someone else was to try to run pppsetup, it would not work.

This could probably be rectified by adding a new dependency to pppsetup.tcz. Which extension would that be?
Many people see what is. Some people see what can be, and make a difference.
