I am not sure if this solves my problem completely. I installed pppoe via 
apt-get, reconfigured my connection, but although there is now a valid file 
ppp-on-boot.dsl I still can't establish a connection after rebooting. When I 
try to start pon I get following message:

Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded.
Linux kernel does not support PPPoE -- are you running 2.4.x?

Is it really a problem of the kernel? Can I maybe install another kernel 
image? (I use Ubuntu with 2.6.8.1-2-386; I run Sarge with the 2.6.7-1-636 
image).
