I have a fully up to date openSUSE 10.2/GNOME desktop, and this bug just bit me
when I ran KPPP as root. Logging out and logging back in via GDM did *NOT* fix
the bug. Logging in on a console tty and removing the .ICEauthority* files did
fix it.
Note also that I was motivated to run KPPP as root precisely because KPPP fails
to prompt for the root PW to gain permissions needed to control PPP
connections.
