Hi all,
When the "make kernel" step of the pppd v2.3.5 installation is executed,
it makes modifications to the kernel such that the kernel will no longer
compile.
It can be said that pppd v2.3.5 breaks kernels above v2.0.33 - is anyone
aware of the problem, and is anyone likely to fix it?
The kernel compilation process breaks as follows:
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.0.36-pre12/drivers/net'

Any idea what "ddinfo" is that seems to be missing?
