ppp problem

The kernel is 2.1.24. Actually, if I start ppp as root from console, I
don't see lot packets transfer. If the machine is freshly rebooted and
I login from a regular user's X-window, using 'su -', then problem
will come up. It seems to me the machine sends out packets and then
the packets loop back.

The "Bad checksum" message has nothing to do with X-window.

Thanks
