NetworkManager 0.7.x and later can do PPPoE over ethernet, but have the
limitation that you'll only get PPPoE and not a local subnet IP address
on the underlying ethernet device.  That limitation will be fixed in a
subsequent version of NetworkManager.

You'll want a kernel with PPP & PPPoE support, pppd 2.4.4 or later, and
the rp-pppoe package as well.  At the moment, you will need to manually
create a PPPoE connection in the connection editor, since AFAIK you
can't auto-detect PPPoE.  Or, you can delete the default "Auto eth0"
connection, and create a PPPoE connection to automatically connect with
PPPoE.
