Well, there's a brutal way, which you can use until I find the proper way to do it!
Edit the kppprc config file (which should be in ~/.kde/share/config) and change the line saying: device=/dev/modem to device=/dev/whateveryoulike Note that when you go back into kppp, you will see the device is still /dev/modem as the other device isn't in the scrolllist. BUT it will now dial the device in the config file. As far as I can see, the device list looks almost as if it might be hardcoded, which surprises me, as it's a pretty stupid thing to do!
