I don't exactly know how that works, wrong parameters, I think.
I think you must already have chosen the PPPOE option while compile the kernel, otherwise, the previous version might not work properly either, Nevertheless, you may check option within that warning in your kernel config file to make sure.
I've just spent several hours trying permutations to get ADSL to connect
after updating to Baselayout-1.12.0 & Ppp-2.4.3 .
I've read /etc/conf.d/net.example & copied what seem the needed lines :
config_eth0=( " 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255" )
config_ppp0=( "ppp" )
link_ppp0="eth0"
plugins_ppp0=( "pppoe" )
username_ppp0='[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
pppd_ppp0=( "updetach" "noauth" "defaultroute" "usepeerdns" "persist" )
I've also made the symlink : 'cd /etc/init.d ; ln -s net.lo net.ppp0'.

There are no boot error msgs, the "start eth0" line returns "ok"
& the "start ntpd" line also says "ok", but the connection isn't made.
The 1st "ok" comes back very quickly -- 2 - 3 seconds -- ,
whereas a successful connection normally takes 10 seconds.
I don't exactly know how that works, wrong parameters, I think.
I have no problem when I return to using Rp-pppoe-3.8
(after changing to my old version of 'net' & removing the symlink).
When I emerged Ppp-2.4.3 it gave warnings that I do not have
CONFIG_PPP_DEFLATE & CONFIG_PPP_BSDCOMP in my kernel ( 2.6.14).
Before I recompile the kernel, can anyone confirm that might be the problem ?

There's nothing useful on the Forum & I've exhausted my own thoughts:
does anyone have any other useful suggestions ?
