I just had got done playing around with this and came up with the same solution, 
thanks Nick.  Minicom and dip were fine with the modem, but kppp needs those delays.

Yes - running detect, it looks like it segfaults reading /proc/cpuinfo.  I'll have a 
look at it. Harddrake is calling detect, so it's failing in the same manner.  I wasn't 
able to duplicate any problem with linuxconf, aside from the usual fear of it trashing 
my config files for me ;^)
