chat/pppd problems



Hello.

[I wrote about this a while ago, but didn't get a response. This
time the symptom is similar but slightly different.]

When attempting to dial my ISP with a chat script, I get:

Apr  2 21:54:01 fortinbras chat[360]: %% Low on memory; try again later^M

right after the modem's CONNECT, and the connection fails. This is
shortly after the system is started.

Top of 'top':

  9:54pm  up 6 min,  2 users,  load average: 0.06, 0.04, 0.00
