http://packages.debian.org/testing/net/kppp.html shows the depends of 
kppp in testing (woody)

It only seems to depend on two kde packages kdelibs3 and kdebase-libs 
(neither of which require any other specifically kde packages but do 
recommend some) though you will also need the qt libraries (which 
both kde packages depend on) besides that it appears that kppp 
shouldn't be too much of a problem to run on a low end machine as 
long as you are running a relatively light weight window 
manager/desktop environment already and have the Qt stuff installed.

Unfortunatly I can't say for sure though because I've never tried 
running X on anything that would be considered lightweight (nothing 
below an AMD K6-2 450)
