I forgot to mention one thing. Now I am on 2.4.7 kernel and I have upgraded my
ppp and modutils from sid.
rajesh@debian:~$ dpkg -l | grep ppp
ii ppp 2.4.0f-1 Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) daemon.
ii pppconfig 2.0.5 A text menu based utility for configuring pp
rajesh@debian:~$
rajesh@debian:~$ dpkg -l | grep modutils
ii modutils 2.4.1-1 Linux module utilities.
