Have you tried resetting your BIOS? Have you tried using another
kernel as well? Try also running the ppp scripts where you will see
output, I don't think echoing into the devices will out put anything
unless you are watching the ttyS's. You might have to be dumping the
ttyS* output using cat or something similiar in order to see any
errors.
