trunk: pppoe supposed to be working?



Hi,

I'd just like to know if current svn versions of NM 0.7 are supposed to
have working pppoe support. (libnm: 3571, nm: 3572, nm-applet: 685)
I entered the username and the password, left the service blank, as i
have no idea what is supposed to go in there and it works with rp-pppoe
and on my router too without a service name.

When i connect directly to the dsl modem, NM tries to connect to "Auto
Ethernet" but fails because it doesn't get an IP address assigned. When
I select the dsl connection from the applet's list, NM crashes. I can
restart it again but the wired connections are greyed out then. When I
unplug the ethernet cable and plug it back in, NM tries to connect to
"Auto Ethernet" again, fails to get an IP address, and so on..

NM also crashes when I enter something into the service entry field.

I'd just like to know if this is the current state, or if I should get
any kind of IP address for direct connections, a zeroconf address for
example, or if it's "normal" currently, that I can't get an address.
And I'd also like to know if activating a dsl connection is known to
crash NM at the moment.

Thanks,
Björn
