Finding existing PPP connection?

[Matej Cepl <ceplm seznam cz>]

Hi,

I know there are some attempts to make PPP working with NM, but I have
slightly more simple answer. Is it possible to *discover* existing PPP
connection with NM created by other means (i.e., running wvdial in su-ued
gnome-terminal)? I have incredibly crappy connection (or bad support for
PCMCIA GPRS card in Linux, I don't know), so it takes me three or four or
more attempts to get connection, but then it would be nice if NM could
find out that the connection happened and inform other programs (Epiphany,
Evolution, etc.) about being connected, and if NM would be able to
establish VPN connection over that. Is it possible, or I am just dreaming
RFE?

Thanks for the nice product,

Matěj

My point was simply that such tax proposals [for Pigovian taxes
compensating for the transaction costs] are the stuff that dreams
are made of. In my youth it was said, that what was too silly to
be said may be sung. In modern economics it may be put into
mathematics.
