Read the PPP docs *carefully*. It says there that there is a shell script
(I already forgot the name) that looks into the source tree of the kernel
you are building (Linux 2.2.10 in your case). This script will update your
kernel source, copying needed files into the kernel source tree. After
this, recompile your Linux kernel.
