You shouldn't need to execute pppd by yourself (on the FSO) - there are
methods available on the dbus ready to be used.

I have a shell script that executes:

mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.frameworkd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device
org.freesmartphone.GSM.PDP.ActivateContext internet.parlino.se username
password

It works perfectly. (However, after a disconnect I loose all GSM
connectivity, but I need to test this more in order to feel I can file a
bug.)
