Couldn't set tty to PPP discipline: Invalid argument

["Brad Faler" <bfaler@zdnetonebox.com>]

Hi,

I just upgraded my Potato system to the latest development kernel (2.4.0-test1),
but I can no longer connect to my ISP.

I tried upgrading pppd to the latest version (2.04b2 I believe), but
I'm still getting the same results.  My computer dials in to the ISP,
but then disconnects immediatly (before sending username/password information).

Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?  I haven't tried
running a different 2.3.x kernel, so I might give that a shot later tonight.

I've included the relevant section of my syslog file below:
