I just emerged rp-pppoe, but i can't get it running. After adsl-setup, running 'adsl-start' just hangs (tries to connect but tons of dots appear).
that happens when the distant ADSL server is down: are you sure it's up ?

When i run 'adsl-setup' and 'adsl-start' from the gentoo LiveCD, everything works fine, but not if i boot from my installed gentoo system, so my best guess is that my kernel config is wrong somewhere.
if you think it's your kernel, check for :
Code maturity level options ---> [*] Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers
Network device support ---> ... <M> PPP (point-to-point protocol) support [*] PPP filtering <M> PPP over Ethernet (EXPERIMENTAL)
of course you don't need filtering for the connection, but I guess you want to have a firewall ;-)
therefore you will have to select from
Networking options --->
[M] Network packet filtering (replaces ipchains)
...
IP: Netfilter Configuration ---> (select here the targets you like to have ... or everything non-experimental [as module])
