Did you log out of KDE? If so, it shut down all programs started under KDE,
including kppp. If you want the connection to start automatically everytime you
start KDE, just drag a link to kppp into the autostart directory on your
desktop. Under LM5.3, you can find kppp under /opt/kde/bin. Just drag it over
and select "link" when it asks you.
A better way to get to the command line would be 1) start an xterm or konsole;
or 2) type ctrl+alt+F2, then type ctrl+alt+F7 to get back to KDE.
