Hi there!

I have just installed kernel 1.3.92, but I can not get PPP to work. I
have tried almost every kerneles form 1.3.81 an up, but neither of it
worked with PPP.

Now, this might seems to be the usual problem with "get a the new PPP
daemon" or get the all the new stuffs... But this is not.

The solution maybe is damned easy, but I can not figure it out.
O.K. I compile the new kernel, rebooting, everything seems to be working
fine, however it says the my system does not supports PPP and yes, the
/proc/net/dev holds the same information, despite that at booting time
PPP is seems to be there - al least that is what is says.

Could anyone help me please?

I even tried to compile PPP as modules, but that does not worked either.

Thanking you in advance!
Tamas
