Hi dams ,
 I've tested with france alcatel for the orkit modem that works as pptp .
it doesn't work , when using the howto that I've sent earlier on the list 
sometimes it works (on certain configuration) aand sometimes note how could I 
help you get it works .
Note I've no ADSL modem I test all this on friends computers .

 You're right, it was bad to determine the protocole to use with the land
 and the modem type.

 The problem is : how can a newbie answer to the question "use pppoe or
 pptp?" If you have suggestion... But I agree that it's bad to ask the land
 and the modem type.

Without the modem, it's difficult for me... Send me a mail privately, we will
investigate that a little more

 The geographic area is probably a better predictor than the modem
 brand.

 Try one.  If it works you guessed right.  Otherwise, try the other one
 :-)  This, of course, assumes you can't just call your service
 provider and ask.

yes, I think that I'll do that...

woaaah , this is a very good idea if it works correctly ..
it will simplify a lot the configuration for newbies .
I will test it after  you do this ;-)

I thing so , how to configure it since :
  my friend installed Mandrake telling it to use PPPoE  and it doesn't tell 
him to enter the hostname of the VPN (10.0.0.138 RELAY_PPP1)
and for the moment they haven't fix dns (automatique) ...
and it doesn't works so for the moment .

I'm not sure how applicable this is to your situation but when
installing DSL under v7.2 you're asked whether you're in "France" or
"other countries".  This seems too consistent with what others here
have suggested to be coincidence.  Wish I could tell you something
about what the France option is installation but I've never had need
to select it.
