same here. looks like the patchfile needed to be redone.

on a lucent lt winmodem on a compaq armada m300, loading the module and
dialling thru userland ppp works like a charm. havent managed to get it to
work with kde's kppp though. it first complains of unable to lock file,
and when that is turned off in the configs, it then says "Sorry, cant open
modem"

anyone knows how kppp does things ?
