The PPP daemon needs kernel ppp support.

Symptom:

The pppd claims that it has not found ppp support in the kernel. (See /var/log/messages)

Cause:

Well, one reason is exactly what it says: there is no ppp support in the kernel. The other possibility is that the pppd is that the pppd might have been launched on an interface that expects to get ppp packages but doesn't get them. This might be due to a faulty chat script. This script expects ppp packages far to early.

Solution:

Please correct your chat script.
