http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=903553 --- Comment #4 from Marguerite Su --- Hi, allow me to share some of my findings. 0. rp-pppoe is always not installed by default in the past (I searched "patterns-openSUSE" packages since 12.3, and all those package-lists-* packages in openSUSE:1x.x:Live repositories), and not in Live CDs. 1. DSL connection under NetworkManager GUI is actually processed by ppp package, through a plugin call rp-pppoe.so. And there's no significant difference between ppp 2.4.5 in 13.1 and ppp 2.4.7 in 13.2 through specfiles. What is mysterious is that many users claim that the DSL connection set up in 13.1 can't work in 13.2 anymore. That means, at least in 13.1, DSL works. But so far I still didn't find where the regression locates. I'll download the packages to see if that plugin is actually there in the package. And I still didn't get the connection between ppp and rp-pppoe. Are they mutual exclusive? or ppp needs rp-pppoe to provide functions? That is, is rp-pppoe.so a full functional plugin that can replace rp-pppoe itself (it explains why wroking connection in 13.1 can't work in 13.2, because we may miss the plugin in ppp package. then it starts to require rp-pppoe itself), or it's a wrapper that calls the later in (ldd the so between different versions of openSUSE may help). That's my unproved theory, Thanks Marguerite -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
