Dear Marvin, The installation works in principle (the drivers are loaded, etc,) but now I have problems to connect. Before (with a slamr supported Winmodem) I have always used 'kppp' without problems. Now, instead, I get all kind of problems (the connection disconnects in second 1 with pppd error '0', or then hangs, or... although once I was able to connect briefly for a couple of minutes: the connection really worked, but afterwards no success). Could this be solved with the patching you mentioned? Or could it be a different problem? E.g. with kppp? Thanks for all your help!
