I am successfully running 2.2.9 with kmod support for my ppp modules:

at first I could start pppd and kmod would load the necessary modules,
slhc and ppp.  However none of the other compression modules were being
loaded, and I was getting error messages in the logs about kmod not
finding certain modules.  I set up a couple of aliases in conf.modules:

alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate
alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate

this stopped the error messages and caused both bsd_comp and ppp_deflate
to be loaded when pppd is started.  However cron comes by and cleans out
unused modules (with rmmod -a) every 5 minutes.  On it's first pass after
the connection it removes bsd_comp and ppp_deflate.  Should this happen?
What does it mean?  I assumed that since I was getting the error messages
that the compression _was_ being used by my ISP and I needed them to be
there.  

any help or comments would be appreciated!

thanks,
Seth
