Have you read the PPP HOwto?  (always the first port of call...)

To whet your appetite:

 18.3.  The syslog says "serial line is not 8 bit clean..."

  There are variations on this too - such as serial line looped back
  etc., and the cause can be one (or a sequence) of a number of things.


So now you can go and read it yourself.  If you don't have HOWTOs
installed on your system you can read it at the Linux Documentation
Project at www.linux.org.au
