No source code or Makefile installed.

linux-2.0.34-0.6 would be a hard directory, with "linux" symlinkt to it.
Simply do;
cd /usr/src/linux
ls -al
You should see lots of different directrorys and files like;

-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        18458 Jul 13 20:47 COPYING
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        39432 Sep 23 08:20 CREDITS
drwxr-xr-x   6 root     root         1024 Sep 23 08:20 Documentation
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        10221 Jul 13 20:47 MAINTAINERS
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        10106 Sep 23 08:20 Makefile
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        12056 Jun 26  1996 README
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root         4596 Sep 23 08:20 Rules.make

If you dont see those files then you have no source installed.

Anyway is'nt there a module called ppp.o in /lib/modules/2.0.34/net if so
then you have PPP support, if you installed the modules at install time then
it should be there.
