ppp/chat causes kernel general protection error
This looks terrible to me, any advice?
Package: ppp
Version: 2.3.5-2
uname: Linux ankle 2.0.35 #2 Sat Nov 7 19:04:05 PST 1998 i586 unknown
libc6: 2.0.7u-5
netbase: 3.11-1
I run 'pon' and get the error below. It doesn't happen every time,
rebooting usually fixes it, but once it happens, nothing short of a reboot
seems to have any effect.
