mgetty + pppd + 2.4.2 kernel + autoppp

[<Jeff@meta-craft.com>]

Ok, sans any scathing editorial commentary, I'll keep my question simple.

Does or Does Not a (correctly configured under 2.2.18) release of mgetty
work in concert with pppd (2.4) under the latest greatest 2.4.2 kernel?

Last time I dialed my laptop into my desktop was back in August of 2000,
when I was running the 2.2.18 kernel. Everything worked fine,
out-of-the-box I might add.

However, now it seems that pppd doesn't seem to want to run.

Anyone have pointers for me?
