Have you tried the instructions here

The problem is that they refer to kernel 2.4.X series.
Hope that this helps,

Antonio
Antionio,

Thanks muchly for your reply. I don't think I have problems with the process of building and installing on Core 3. The directions at http://www.geocities.com/chriscmalcolm/index.htm are more than clear on that score. The issue is that once I have built and loaded the kernel module the supporting pppoatm and pppd  it does not perform the way I was hoping it would.

I have seen references to "spinlock" error messages on the web and it does not look too serious, although once I know the system is working I would like to supress them. There are hints that the errors are inherent in the 2.6.9 kernels.

The issue  I was hoping to get feedback about is the last set of errors at the point where I would have hopped to see the ip addresses assigned.

Regards
