Emerging ppp gives : | Code: | ERROR: postinst
CONFIG_PPP_DEFLATE: missing Deflate compression (optional, but highly recommended)
CONFIG_PPP_BSDCOMP: missing BSD-Compress compression (optional, but highly recommended)
WARN: postinst
If the following test report contains a missing kernel configuration option that you need,
you should reconfigure and rebuild your kernel before running pppd.
CONFIG_PPP_SYNC_TTY: missing synchronous serial line discipline (optional; used by 'sync' pppd option)
CONFIG_PPP_MPPE: missing MPPE encryption (optional, mostly used by PPTP links)
Please check to make sure these options are set correctly.
Failure to do so may cause unexpected problems. |
I'm wondering whether these modules needed for ADSL or not. |

MPPE is definitely not needed.
DEFLATE and BSDCOMP shouldn't be needed either (broadband PPPx connections usually have compression disabled)
SYNC_TTY is your call. Some says you will have better results using synchronous serial line discipline, but I didn't tried it. |
