I have been running SBC DSL on Mandrake for a couple of years, although I can't
speak to what effect the recent "upgrade" to "yahoo-DSL" may have. (For once I'm
planning not to fix something that isn't broken.)
I have had very good luck w/ Roaring Penguin's RP-PPPoE with and without the gui.
The rpms are on the distro.
The distro uses rp-pppoe to install adsl pppoe networking, but I have always had
better luck explicitly installing it. Once installed, execute "tkpppoe" (or
"adsl-setup" from CLI) as root and it will walk you through setting up your ADSL
connection. Since you're installing from the mdk rpms, it will even show up on the
Mandrake 9.0 menu under Networking> Remote Acess.
HTH,
Scott
