There's a bit in the man page about this.  Once you've done your 
login/password bit, your ISP may start talking ppp immediately, in 
which case ppp detects this and starts talking back.  If your ISP is 
waiting for you to start, type ~p to enter packet mode.

Chat logging can be enabled with ``set log +chat''.  Alternatively, 
if you want to see it at your prompt, do ``set log local chat''.  
Again, check the man page.

Although the man page is fairly big (it's even bigger in the dev 
version :-), it's worth giving it a once over.  Even if everything 
doesn't stick, you'll end up more familiar with how ppp is going 
about things.
