I've done what you said in permissions.local (and I am in the dialout group) but whenever I try to Query the Modem or even enter the Terminal mode kppp just freezes! And I have to use kill -9 xxxx (not just ordinary kill xxxx) to dead it :-).
Did you run SuSEconfig? That will set the correct permissions for pppd.
What is missing and that has to be done to get kppp to work? Give me a clue :-).
The only thing I can guess is a messed up config file. Try renaming or moving to Trash ~/.kde/share/config/kpprc. I have used it for several years with only minor packaging glitches, i.e. once /etc/ppp/peers/kppp file was left out, now the pppd permissions.
BTW, I am also using kde 3.1.4.
I have used it since upgrading, so I know it still works. Same config file on mine since quite a while.
