Glad you asked about the silo overflow. I get this each and every time I 
spark up (user) ppp. I use an internal modem (no docs anywhere, except 
for one line in the FAQ). This happens to me in 2.2.8. After a while (20 
minutes, either idle or busy) I have to kill ppp and reconnect. Everyting 
else checks out, including the ISP (as I use other OS' with this ISP, no 
probs). I was hoping this would go away with an upgrade (grumble, 
grumble). The only thing that I suspect (in my case) is incorrect 
parametres in the kernel config file, i.e. don't use the vector keyword, 
etc. But I can't find any docs on how to configure these. The simple one 
example isn't sufficient to generalize from ( in the handbook).

Hope you find out, and I hope someone can point me to some docs that I've 
missed.

Thanks!
