Install "NetworkManager" and "network-manager-applet" from http://SlackBuilds.org.

Total overkill for home usage. Just install rp-pppoe and run pppoe-setup.

That is a matter of taste.

Also, you can use GUI for/from rp-pppoe - TkPPPoE. SLKBUILD (Dependencies: tk, tcl; borrowed from here):

Code: Select all

pkgname=tkpppoe
pkgver=3.10
pkgrel=111
source=("http://www.roaringpenguin.com/files/download/rp-pppoe-$pkgver.tar.gz")
docs=("authors" "copying" "changelog" "install" "news" "readme")


slackdesc=\
(
#|-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------|
"tkpppoe (a GUI for managing PPPoE Connections from RP-PPPoE)"
"TkPPPoE is a graphical user interface for managing PPPoE connections."
""
"Homepage: http://www.roaringpenguin.com/products/pppoe"
)


build() {
        cd $startdir/src/rp-pppoe-$pkgver/src
        ./configure \
           --prefix=/usr \
           --libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
           --localstatedir=/var \
           --sysconfdir=/etc \
           --enable-plugin=/ppp-2.4.4
	   
        cd ../gui
        make || return 1
        make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
}
After installation run in terminal (root):

Code: Select all

tkpppoe
