Whenever pppd exits, i'm getting hundreds of entries in /var/log/messages and /var/log/ppp (more detailed extracts further below) saying:
Nov 25 03:45:06 vcserver1 modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module ppp0 Nov 25 03:45:41 vcserver1 last message repeated 7 times Nov 25 03:45:51 vcserver1 last message repeated 2 times <...> I can go on for hours like that with no other errors being reported. These messages stop as soon as pppd is started again (generally, using wvdial on RH7.1 with ppp-2.4x), whether i've dialed up to my ISP or not. Repeated connections to my ISP are no problem. Any ideas? Why these messages? What should i do?
