Right. /etc/ppp/peers/ppp0 has:

connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f ppp0"

chat looks for a file called ppp0, but doesn't look in /etc/chatscripts. g-s-t
should probably be writing a file that has an absolute pathname, not a relative one.

I uploaded gnome-applets_2.10.0-0ubuntu4 that should fix the issue. Can you
please confirm that the new version works for you?

Thanks,
