>Description:
There is no ppp(4) manual page describing the PPP pseudo-device 'ppp'.
>How-To-Repeat:
Take a look through a number of kernel config files. note the
lines like 'pseudo-device ppp'. Try to figure out what that is
and how to manipulate it, by saying 'man 4 ppp'.
>Fix:
Somebody should write a ppp(4) manual page, etc. That manual page
should probably reference pppd(8) as well.
