belay that, matey !

it runs, dials and negotiates just fine. connectins work for a short
while, however it hangs the entire machine, and by hangs i mean freezes
everything such that ctrl-alt-backspace (for X) or ctrl-alt-delete dont
work at all. only thing that works is a manual power cycle.

this freeze happens after some traffic does get thru, and usually early
on. i've not managed to have it last longer than 3 minutes, though this
may be probably tied to the number of bytes flowing thru the modem.

odd, havent quite figured this one out yet. all this on FBSD 4.3-BETA from
early march.
