My ppp box is a 2.1.96 kernel, which I hacked slightly to get the fpu
emulator to compile. The other end, I'm not sure.. :(

What about these:

Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=2128)
Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=2128)
Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=1984)
Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=2224)
Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=1984)

Are they anything to be worried about?

Regards,

Dave.
