I experienced the same problems on my system. After I made alterations to the
ppp0e.conf
file, namely, placing apostrophes at either end of the username, and removing the
parenthesied phrase (using 8139too) from the ETH= line, I was able to connect to the
internet
using adsl-start. The connection also started from boot now. (though the dhcp failed
during
boot.) I did notice a strange occurance though after I connected. Prior to .conf
alteration,
ifconfig gave me 4 devices: eth0, eth0:9, eth1, and lo, all of which were normal,
EXCEPT
eth0:9. Don't know whats happening there. But anyway, after the alteration, and
starting the
dsl connection using 'adsl-start' I ifconfiged again, and it returned a much more
normal
status (included below):

These actions remedied everything but the DHCP failure for me.

when installing mandrake 9.1 fresh, or then as an upgrade to mandrake9.0. I am
unable to get my dsl modem configured. It works great with 9.0
I assumed when doing an upgrade install my settings would have stayed.
Any tips?
