Hello everyone!
I installed FC 8 and want to torture myself(:-P) by trying to install sagem fast 840.
Any chances of this happening?
I've found a guide in a forum (it's not in english so no need to paste link),it had the same steps for the installation with those for installation of sagem in ubuntu.
The problem is that when I did
sudo pppd call ueagle-atm it gave me "command not found"
Any suggestions?

Thanx in advance for any help :-)

there is no sudo in Fedora, and even if you enable it, it doesn't give you all the commands because many are not in the standard user's path. Try running it as root by typing 'su -' and entering the root password, then retrying the command. If this still fails to find the command, try installing pppd via yum.

I typed
yum install pppd and of course it gave me "could not retrieve mirrorlist etc..
Can I download the package for this command from somewhere so I can put it with a flash stick in my fedora?
