Its having a dependency problem. You need to do urpmi pppoe, or find the rpm at rpmfind.net and install it.

edit: ignore this edit. Edit: Searching on rpmfind doesn’t yield the results you want. Try installing this package: ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake/2006.0/i586/media/main/ppp-2.4.3-9mdk.i586.rpm

[dave@hayes ~]$ su Password: [root@hayes dave]# urpmi pppoe no package named pppoe The following packages contain pppoe: [B]gpppoem ppp-pppoe pppoe-linuxconf rp-pppoe rp-pppoe-gui[/B] [root@hayes dave]#
i don’t really understand output of console, do i need to check dependances (in bold) ? thanks

You just need to do urpmi ppp-pppoe.

The modem driver requires the pppoe package, and ppp-pppoe is the closest match. so do urpmi ppp-pppoe and it should be fine.
