fso-config-util.py just provides a GUI that passes parameters to 
org.freesmartphone.GSM.PDP.ActivateContext() and shows the output of the 
ContextStatus signal, in your case 'release'. I should probably make it more 
human-readable, but in the meantime you can find an explanation at 
http://docs.freesmartphone.org

You should be able to enable logging for fso in /etc/frameworkd.conf if it 
isn't enabled already. After restarting frameworkd (reboot is easiest) you 
should be able to see debug output using logread -f.

It may be worth checking the thread "[SHR] GPRS / FATAL: Error inserting 
ppp_mppe" on the community list as it seems to be covering similar ground.

What's this about an extra number that you need to enter? Is there a 
documentation page you can point us to?

Unless someone's made an updated version I don't know about ;-)
