It's a long time since I used pppd ... but, maybe it's outputting the ppp
protocol stuff to the console. It would certainly look like garbled text.
I think it's a bit unusual to start pppd from the command line - you'd
usually only start it once a modem connection is established using a utility
such as 'chat'.
