Can't help with the PPP problems but I suspect that this problem:

IRQ3.

is due to the pcmcia modem that you are using.  Take a look in the
/var/messages file and look for something that says the card is not
recognized/supported (can't remember the exact message).  I had the same
problem when using the v.90 56k xjack modem (is that what you have?).  I
switched to the one that has the X2 logo on it and have had no problems
since.

Thanks, Joe
