Yes, I have realized of this problem trying to activate ppp0 using system-config-network. Hitting the Activate button I have got the errors 8 and 6.

I get (when disconected):

======
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.54.0
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
ATZ
OK
--> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
OK
--> Sending: ATM0
ATM0
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Configuration does not specify a valid phone number.
--> Configuration does not specify a valid login name.
--> Configuration does not specify a valid password.
======

and /etc/wvdial.conf is currently:

======
[Modem0]
Modem = /dev/modem
Baud = 115200
SetVolume = 0
Dial Command = ATDT
Init1 = ATZ
Init3 = ATM0
FlowControl = CRTSCTS
[Dialer ppp0]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Inherits = Modem0

Not sure. Is the origin of this problem that phone number, login and password entries are missing in wvdial.conf?

By the way, it seems that KPPP does not use it. And what about Gnome-ppp? I can connect with both.

Fine, after solving wvdial I will go on with that.
