Description Dima Ryazanov 2010-04-18 04:57:37 UTC 
Version:           0.9 (using KDE 4.4.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have a PPTP VPN connection configured. When I click the system tray icon and select the VPN connection, it shows the word "Activating" for a fraction of a second, then goes back to the way it was, as if nothing ever happened. There are no error messages, and nothing new is displayed in standard output.

Is there anything in /var/log/messages?

I'm getting a segfault with the ovpn helper and the message shows up there.

Is this still happening?
