That sounds strange. I am guessing that it is only some settings
problem that probably can be solved but it will take some more
information.
I don't think that its the kernel driver but more probably ppp
setup. Worst case scenario maybe using alian on the rpm package, or
installing the corel package may work.
Any idea of the specifics?
How are you setting up the ppp connection. What does ps ax | grep ppp
return, what do you get when running tcpdump on the interface over
which you connect ppp, what about tcpdump and ppp0 during connection?
lsmod for a working connection?
