So, if I understand this right (it's still hard to figure what you've
done from the description provided):

	- Connecting the embedded system (running an unknown version
          of PPP) to a Windows box works fine.

	- Connecting the embedded system (again, unknown PPP) to a
          Linux box running pppd fails.

Assuming that's right, try "noccp" on the Linux box.  I see that
you've negotiated CCP with the Deflate algorithm.  That never would
have happened when talking to a Windows system, and it's possible that
one side or the other has bugs with data compression.  The symptoms of
bugs there would be _exactly_ what you're now seeing.
