Add these lines to your /etc/conf.modules:
alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate
alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate

The driver in linux 2.2.3 is functionally the same as the one in ppp
2.3.5 and 2.3.6, the only difference is that the driver in the ppp
distribution has stuff in it so it will work in a 2.0 kernel as well
as a 2.2 kernel, which isn't necessary in the driver in the linux
2.2.x kernel sources.
The only change in the ppp-2.3.7 driver was to add support for
synchronous serial ports. If you don't need that, you don't need to
update the kernel driver.
