Have you built in ppp support or module support? If you have mod, then have you added the lines below to /etc/modules.conf or conf.modules? alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate alias tty-ldisc-3 ppp Which ppp-pkg are you using? I use ppp-2.4.0b2, but ppp-2.3.11 should also work fine.

However it would seem the/my problem is further back Be sure not having something like ppp_async/ppp_generic in drivers/net/. If so you may have the same situation I had. rsync -avz linuxcare.com.au:linux-pmac-stable should help to get a clean download. Otherwise??? Andreas ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
