No, its smtg wrong with KPPP and/or dhcp. If i use the "Network Device Configuration" to dial-up then everything works ok ... i signaled this "bug" already, but noone answered to it .... So until someone does ... we wait.

I don't know what automagic means but kppp overwrites your resolv.conf

properly configured in kppp. Since it is overwriting they must be
defined in the kppp configuration.
