rp-pppoe version 3.5 works with Slack 8.1 but
neither rp-pppoe 3.5 nor 3.6 (that came with Slack 10.2) nor 3.7 work
with Slack 10.2

They time out waiting for PADO packets.

I've run DEBUG=1 pppoe-start and all looks ok
I've reinstalled ppp and tcp/ip

Anyone got rp-pppoe running under 10.2?

Better yet, what's the fix? (I can't remember the special thing I had to
do to get 3.5 running under Slack 8.1)

I suspect it's either not finding one of the libraries it needs or it's not
finding ppp itself. Run it from the command line:

adsl-start

and see what errors it gives you. The last time I had this problem, it was
looking in the wrong place for a libraries and the configuration
under /etc/ppp.

Yep, sorry.

Get anything back from pppoe -d -I <interface>?

Is no more, use pppoe-start from 10.2 on

I'm always right. This time I'm just even more right than usual.

pppoe: Timeout waiting for PADO packets

While playing around with that command (& ifconfig & others), the DSL
modem was connected to eth1 and pppoe.conf specified it was connected to
eth0 - it worked! Go figure. The vice-versa also works.
