problem solved. After logging out and in, it worked. I guess I did not
allow the change to take effect earlier. Thanks.

Actually, I did both, i.e. adding the non-root user to both 'dialout'
and 'dip'. The problem is still there. Could it be that I should not
add the non-root user to the group manually and I should do it thru
pppconfig instead? I couldn't test it out now as I'm using a windowz
machine.

thanks for your tips, all of them worked except for the dialing out

I have included the non-root user to the 'dialout' group as you
mentioned
This is incorrect. You need to add the non-root user to the 'dip' group
(pppconfig can do that). You will need to log out and back in for the
change to take effect.
