Hello Paul,
	Well, that was a tough nut to crack. However, I have at least a working
theory. I think the problem lies in how libgtop is reporting the device
flags that I use to detect if the device is active. I've made a patch
for pppdevice.c and attached it to this message. To apply copy the
attachment into xfce4-pppwatch-plugin-0.1.2/panel-plugin and enter 

	patch -p0 <pppdevice.c.patch

Then compile/install as usual. Let me know if this helps, and thanks for
testing efforts.
