Hello Brook,

I had checked and made the d38400 in gettytab to no parity. When I
started pppd with Pc or d38400, garbage comes out.  After a few seconds,
the following error comes out on the console. 

======== Error ========
Feb 29 09:53:48 pc64 pppd[4368]: pppd 2.2.0 started by clarence, uid 300

Any idea?

cheers.
