If you can't find squid, squid was not installed. good. Now you have a couple of other programs there which may be trying to make access to the Internet. Try removing all of those files from rc.d - and make sure you save them somewhere else; You will need to put them back. Leave only one of those files in the rc.d directory and restart your computer by using shutdown -r now Now, you said your ppp is starting w/o (without) reason, but I can't see the file that starts your ppp at rc.d. Are you starting it by hand ? Anyway, what you have to do here is to test each of those files at rc.d and see which of them is starting your ppp link. I don't think it has something to do with your X server. "not square" image with my Xserver, and, hmmmmm... happened to me once. Problems with frequences, in the monitor. I was told that you will have to edit your X configuration files and manualy enter your monitor's horizontal and vertical frequences for each resolution to get it working correctly. You should be able to find the frequences at your monitor's manual, or with your manufacturer. Warning !!! Wraning !!! A wrong number may cause you monitor to fry ! I mean you can damage your monitor if you enter a wrong number (higher than it should be). I think it didn't help much, but it is my contribution...
