I also tried that years ago. If I do so, it tries to log into the access router of the providers, meaning that ppp session is not started, like if
I was having a secondary problem, that one of my internet providers stopped working for me after I updated to SuSE 9.1 - I thought the provider must have change something. pppd[6857]: rcvd [CHAP Challenge id=0x3 <7211438c80e5297b239c109ed968bf65>, name = "Hiper"] pppd[6857]: Unable to obtain CHAP password for ****@telelineb on Hiper from plugin pppd[6857]: No CHAP secret found for authenticating us to Hiper pppd[6857]: sent [CHAP Response id=0x3 <3ff*...>, name = "****@telelineb"] pppd[6857]: rcvd [LCP EchoRep id=0x0 magic=0xded72aa1] pppd[6857]: rcvd [CHAP Failure id=0x3 ""] pppd[6857]: CHAP authentication failed pppd[6857]: sent [LCP TermReq id=0x4 "Failed to authenticate ourselves to peer"] So, a ihave just tried to renable stupidmode=0 after having it at 1 for years... and it worked.

P.S.: I'm looking at the thread of your problems with nvida, but I have no help to give there. I also have an nvidia card, but I haven't seen that problem - yet.
