Without using the dgc modem driver, I upgraded to 9.10, and removed modem manager: apt-get remove modem manager.
When I tried gnome-ppp I got the following response: j...@john-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get remove modemmanager [sudo] password for john: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...
