There are a lot of people complaining about kppp lately (including me).  It
was working fine for me in my COL2.3 distro with the KDE and kppp that
shipped.  Now I am playing with Peanut Linux (kernel 2.2.14, KDE1.1.2) and
the exact same thing is happening mostly as user (not root).  As soon as I
connect,  I immediately get disconnected with the error that "Sorry, the
pppd daemon has died unexpectedly".  I wonder if KDE.org is aware of this
and addressing the issue??   I have downloaded a dialer from freshmeat.net
called XISP that looks like it could be promising.  I haven't installed and
tried it yet.  Hopefully this will get sorted out soon.
