I totaly agree
WHY... In Gods name would one not want ppp? Im still using 5.3 and would be curious as 
to WHAT is standard in the kernal.
Id really like to hear the logic as to why ppp isnt included in the stock SuSE kernal. 
LenZ.... Hubert????
leme know when you included ppp and Ill consider a new SuSe distro.
This looks to me like any new user who wants to try SuSE and getonline need to compile 
a kernal--- not very "user friendly"
Till then Ive adapted quite nicely to 5.3
