With the release of the 1.2 kernel for Linux, the PPP driver is a standard part of the network devices. Each kernel should include the software necessary to make the PPP support within the kernel. Please do not edit the PPP driver. It has been pre-configured for the kernel.
If you are attempting to run PPP on kernels prior to the 1.2, then please consider upgrading the kernel. The 1.0 kernels require patching to support the PPP driver. The 1.2 kernels supported PPP to some degree, but also required changes depending upon the specific patch level.
