Can't help with the sg module, but I had a similar problem when upgrading from potato. Make sure all of ppp's dependecies are fulfilled: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.4-4), libpam0g (>= 0.72-1), libpcap0 (<< 0.7.0), libpcap0 (>= 0.6.1-1), libpam-modules, netbase, sysvinit (>= 2.75-4), procps, makedev (>= 2.3.1-56) (from apt-cache show ppp) One of the libs is "new". > > Please send your responses to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC'ed -Andre
