Have you typed "add 0 0 HISADDR" after getting the "PPP ON ...>" 
prompt ?

If you don't know how to create an xterm window, you shouldn't really 
be using X.  You should read the docs on your window manager to find 
out what you can do and how you launch more programs.  In the 
meantime, just time "xterm &" in the other window.
