As far I have seen so far on my Ultra5, there is no problem with 
pppd 2.3.5 / chat from pppd 2.3.7 / kernel 2.2.10:

xenon chat[1016]: ATJH0B40D8800806^M^M
xenon chat[1016]: CONNECT
xenon chat[1016]:  -- got it
xenon chat[1016]: send (^M)
xenon pppd[1015]: Serial connection established.
xenon chat[1016]: expect ( 460800)
xenon chat[1016]:  460800
xenon chat[1016]:  -- got it
xenon chat[1016]: send (^M)
xenon pppd[1015]: Using interface ppp0
xenon pppd[1015]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
xenon pppd[1015]: Remote message:
xenon pppd[1015]: local  IP address 194.159.230.209
xenon pppd[1015]: remote IP address 194.159.73.222

With STAC compression on a dialup 64kb ISDN line when ftp-ing from a 
site in the UK to NL:

150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for regularfile (102400 bytes).
226 Transfer complete.
102400 bytes received in 2.44 secs (41 Kbytes/sec)

The only thing that probably stays bored is the SAB82532 inside the 
Ultra5.

Regards,

Pieter
